Sand (Fine / Building Sand)

Description

Fine or building sand is a granular material used as a key ingredient in mortar, plaster and selected concrete mixes. Its particle size and cleanliness influence the workability, bonding, texture and finish of the final mixture. Properly graded sand helps produce a consistent and workable construction material.

Main applications

• Cement mortar for bricklaying and blockwork.

• Wall plastering and rendering.

• Floor screeding and surface finishing.

• Selected fine concrete and repair mixes.

Key benefits: Improved workability, consistent texture, smoother finishes and better material distribution.

Note: Sand grading and cleanliness should suit the intended application.
