Product Overview

Plastering sand supplied in an 850kg bulk bag, consisting of fine, evenly graded natural aggregate washed and sieved for consistency. 

Its fine texture combines smooth finish, easy workability, and durable compactness, making it suitable for plastering, rendering, mortar, and finishing coats on walls and ceilings.

Features & Benefits

  • Washed and sieved fine aggregate: Produces smooth, uniform surfaces with minimal imperfections.
  • Consistent fine grain size: Enhances workability, allowing mixes to be easily prepared and applied.
  • Grey-brown natural colour: Neutral appearance, blending well with cementitious mixes.
  • Naturally sourced (quarries or seabeds): Quality-controlled with minimal impurities, though moisture and shade may vary.
  • Durable compact finish: Helps create strong plaster and render surfaces resistant to cracking.
  • Versatile material: Suitable for internal plastering, external rendering, mortar, screeds, and decorative blends.
  • 850kg bulk bag supply: Cost-effective for large projects with site delivery convenience.


Please Note: Colour may vary naturally between grey and brown. Bulk bag weight may differ by ±5% due to moisture content. This product is not pre-mixed; always follow correct mix designs and manufacturer instructions for cement, lime, and additives.

Applications

  • Internal plastering: Used in backing coats and to prepare smooth, uniform surfaces for decoration.
  • External rendering: Forms durable, weather-resistant wall finishes in scratch, float, and top coats.
  • Fine mortars and pointing: Suitable where a finer joint finish is required.
  • Floor screeds and decorative use: Sometimes used as a component in finer screeds or blended for landscaping features (check suitability first).

Installation Guidance

  • Measure and mix accurately: Follow standard ratios (e.g. 1:4-6 cement to sand, or 1:1:6 cement, lime, and sand) depending on application.
  • Use safe handling practices: Wear dust mask (FFP3), gloves, and eye protection when mixing cementitious materials.
  • Mix and apply promptly: Gradually add water until smooth, workable consistency is reached, and use within 1-2 hours.

Compliance & Performance

  • Aggregate grading: Washed and sieved to provide consistent fine sand for plastering, rendering, and mortar.
  • Service class: Suitable for internal and external applications in cement and lime-based mixes.
