Exceptional quality coarse kiln dried and graded quartz sand for use as a filter media.
Loose laid the sand provides a textured dust free surface for exhibition, event staging and studio photography.
An excellent clean sand for supporting candles in storm lanterns and for general craft work.
With an exceptionally high silica content and low calcium carbonate the sand is an ideal coarse sand for substrates in both cold water and tropical marine aquariums.

Colour & Form:
We take great care to provide accurate images, however, shade variations can occur both with the sands themselves and with ambient lighting.
It can also be difficult to adequately describe and visualise sand grain size, we do, however, show the sands in context with additional images.
For both colour and form please request a sample if these factors are critical to your application.
