Outback
Sleepers Australia was established in January of 2000 and is based in Adelaide
with operations having recently expanded to Melbourne.
Michael
Ineson, the Managing Director and founder of Outback Sleepers has first hand
experience working with concrete sleepers and concrete wall panels due to his
early working years being spent primarily as a retaining wall contractor.
Working closely with precast concrete retaining walls and other precast
concrete products during the 1990's gave Michael the inspiration to develop and
manufacture the coloured and patterned concrete sleepers that are now the heart
and soul of the company. The humble beginnings took place in a backyard home
producing ten sleepers per week using a household concrete mixer, adding
colours and vibrating the sleepers by hand. Patterned concrete merchandise from
Outback Sleepers now come in a range of products including precast concrete
steps to precast concrete wall panels (panels only available in Victoria).
There is also a wide range of supporting building materials available for
purchase such as under fence plinths and steel support posts. Also available for purchase is the always
useful and very safe "sleeper lifter".
