The pressure treated timber also offers exceptional resistance against decay and rot. This timber is classified as UC4 treated, meaning these softwood sleepers are not only ideal for outdoor use, but it is also suitable for direct contact with the ground. UC2 & UC3u are not treated for ground contact, always use UC4 treated timber.It's no secret that UC4 treated softwood is the best choice for timber garden products. The treatment process involves kiln drying the timber down to around 28% moisture content before treatment, allowing it to penetrate deep into the wood. Without this intense kiln drying, water in the timber will prevent as much treatment getting into the material which makes it unsuitable for garden use.These sleepers are also FSC certified, guaranteeing that they are sourced responsibly, making them not only a durable choice but also an environmentally conscious one. Whether you're building garden structures or creating decorative features, these sleepers provide an economical yet high-quality solution for your garden projects. Suitable for DIY enthusiasts and professional landscapers alike, these sleepers promise to enhance any outdoor environment with their robust build and natural aesthetic appeal.Please note: Timber and stone are natural materials, and as such, variation in colour, texture, and natural markings is to be expected. We strive to represent our products as accurately as possible through imagery; however, colours and shades may appear differently depending on individual monitor settings such as brightness, temperature, and contrast. These variations are not considered defects.
