Natural Sand

Natural Sand for Concrete Construction

Natural sand serves as a key fine aggregate in concrete projects. With a grading of 0-2mm, it provides a smooth finish to your construction work. The well-rounded particles of this sand enhance the workability of concrete mixes, making it suitable for a variety of construction needs.

Characteristics and Considerations

Grading and Particle Shape

The well-rounded particles of natural sand, graded at 0-2mm, offer a uniform texture that is advantageous for concrete applications. This specific shape and size make it a reliable choice for use as a fine aggregate.

Concrete Application Tips

While natural sand is often used in concrete, it is important to be aware of its poor permeability. This characteristic can lead to casting defects such as holes and pores, so careful mixing and casting practices are essential to minimise these issues.
