"If sand could dream" is not a style or range, it is a perception to fulfil aspirations for decorative sand for leisure, sport and product promotion.

At Specialist Aggregates we take your ideas and concepts for sands and with our own manufacturing facilities develop them into reality.

Origination of recent commissions include:

• We are filming a documentary on the American lunar landings and require a sand to replicate the surface of the moon.


• My client is specifying products for the 2014 Commonwealth Games and requires a sand for the long-jump pits


• I'm not at liberty to discuss the exact application, but we require a dark grey sand for a Dr Who film set


• My company requires a beach sand with a pink undertone for a tropical beach photo-shoot.


• Our preference is for a recycled sand - can you help ?


• I'm phoning from a major London store and require an aqua marine coloured sand for our forthcoming window displays.


• Hi Steve, this year we are collaborating on a tropical garden for The Chelsea Flower Show and require a terracotta coloured laterite sand


• We are presenting a Martian Rover display at the University, can you provide a Martian sand ?


• We are co-ordinating a major mail-out for an international charity and require a sand to represent a natural disaster.


• My company requires a pure white sand for a cat walk at Paris fashion Week.


• We are preparing for a photo-shoot with a major international recording artist and need a black sand for the album cover.


• I require a selection of fine coloured sands for a Street Art display promoting a major exhibition at the Victoria and Albert Museum.


• We are a research institute and require a sand that we can trace in our sediment tanks.

What stories our sands could tell ! - laid on by pop stars, seen by millions, researched by academics, bringing colour to our lives.

Contact Specialist Aggregates to discuss your ideas.

Hi Steve,

Do hope you are keeping well. Just wanted to let you know that the ‘Fortunate 2b 50’ Event went off without a hitch and was a really wonderful night. We raised just over £5,500 on the night and still have donations coming in so I think we will probably reach around £7,000 raised for the two charities, breakthrough breast cancer and breast cancer care.

Thank you so much for all your practical help and advice, I have attached a few photos which hopefully illustrate how lovely the tables looked with the orchid centre pieces. We sold the majority of them on the night which contributed to our total.

Once again my sincerest thanks.

Kindest regards and very best wishes

Tracey

The talented guys at Specialist Aggregates are not known for their musical prowess, however, during May 2012 they could be excused for singing along to “I can sing a rainbow”.

How does it go ? Red and Yellow and Pink and – well that’s where it went a bit awry we didn’t have to make green. but Purple and Orange and Blue .

Specialist Aggregates worked evenings and weekends to manufacture the medley of coloured sands on time for what is thought to be the worlds largest coloured sand pit installed along the Thames at The South Bank Centre in London this summer.

The design by Polish artist Adam Kalinowski called Rainbow Park is part of the South Bank’s Festival of the World celebrations. The multi-coloured urban beach will be open for exploration, sandcastle making and beach picnics from 15th June to early September.

Our images show the brightly coloured sands as they were installed in June together with the subtle blending of colours following a month of intermingling. Earlier images include the results of pre-production trials to match specified grain size and colour together with final products awaiting despatch.
