Product Overview

Soft building sand supplied in an 800kg bulk bag, consisting of fine-textured natural aggregate with natural clay content. 

Its fine, even grading produces mortar that is simple to prepare, grips firmly to masonry, and delivers a clean finish. Suitable for bricklaying, pointing, rendering, and blockwork in both internal and external applications.

Features & Benefits

  • Fine soft-grained sand: Produces smooth, workable mortar mixes with a neat finish.
  • Contains natural clay particles: Enhances mortar cohesion and bond strength in bricklaying.
  • Warm natural colour (varies by source): Blends well with cement for consistent joint appearance.
  • Locally sourced from quarries or seabeds: Reliable quality, though shade and moisture levels may vary.
  • Versatile construction use: Suitable for bricklaying, pointing, rendering, bedding, and general building.
  • Bulk project efficiency: Ideal for producing large mortar volumes quickly with heavy-duty mixing equipment.
  • 800kg bulk bag supply: Reduces downtime and reordering, keeping larger projects on schedule.


Please Note: Colour may differ from the images shown in certain locations. Bulk bag weight may vary by ±5% due to moisture content. This is a construction-grade material and not intended for decorative use.

Applications

  • Bricklaying and blockwork: Forms the base ingredient in mortar, ensuring strong joints and smooth finishes.
  • Pointing and rendering: Produces workable mixes for weather-resistant pointing and render coats.
  • General building and landscaping: Suitable for bedding, filling voids, and site levelling tasks.
  • Under slabs and paving: Provides a fine, stable layer beneath slabs, screeds, and paving units.

Installation Guidance

  • Mix with cement and water: Produces consistent bricklaying, pointing, and rendering mortars.
  • Use appropriate equipment: Bulk bag volumes require mechanical handling and heavy-duty mixers.
  • Prepare only what you need: Mortar should be used within its workable timeframe for best performance.

Compliance & Performance

  • Aggregate grading: Fine sand with natural clay content, screened for consistent mortar performance.
  • Service class: Suitable for internal and external use in mortars, renders, and bedding applications.
