What colours can I get?
Our standard products are produced in ‘Charcoal Black’.
For larger orders we can tailor make to the colour of choice. This is subject to a minimum order quantity, oxide availability and we will need at least eight weeks notice to allow for the necessary curing. For further information on special ordering please contact us.
What about painting?
Tuffcrete Timer Look Sleepers are manufactured with the oxide colouring included as part of the concrete batching process. This means that the colour is right through the concrete – not just painted on the surface.
This guarantees a stronger and longer lasting finish that won’t fade in the sun.
We have many clients who leave the sleeper in this colour however you can bring out the colour further by choosing to paint the sleeper with a concrete sealant that will lock in that ‘wet look’.
