Overview

About this product

Water authorities specify embedment materials by WSAA product specification, and sand is no exception: grading, durability and contamination limits all apply. We supply compliant embedment sands including WSA PS 368, the recycled-sand specification that lets infrastructure projects hit sustainability targets without compromising the asset.

Certificates travel with the material, and the digital docket trail in NXT Control gives your handover documentation a head start. For rock-based embedment see our WSA 361 and 362 products.

How much do you need?

Sand is supplied by the tonne. As a guide it weighs around 1.5 tonnes per cubic metre, so multiply your area by the depth for the volume, then by the density. Tell us the job on the quote form and we will work out the tonnes and price the delivery.

Worked example

50 m² × 0.15 m deep = 7.5 m³ × ~1.5 t/m³
