Concrete Sand
Sharp, washed and consistently graded, the sand your concrete strength depends on.
About this product
Concrete sand is a coarse, sharp sand washed free of clay and silt and graded for batching: the fine aggregate that fills the voids between stone and gives a mix its workability. Strength starts here, dirty or inconsistent sand is the fastest way to fail a cylinder test.
Ours comes from established sand resources with consistent fineness modulus load after load, suiting structural concrete, screeds and renders. Daily bulk volumes available, weighed and tracked like everything we move.

How much do you need?
