Brown Fine Sand

Fine brown sand supplied in a one tonne bag

CLS37 Sea Dredged Brown Fine Sand in a 1 tonne bag

This sea dredged brown sand contains shelly fragments and is the cleanest (ie. Free from active fines) sand that we stock. This means that it is ideal for use with lime and the shelly fragments make it a very atractive sand for pointing as well as rendering. It is also a good sand for conservation works in coastal areas where shell rich sands were orginally used, as it is one of the few modern sands available that contain shell material and no contaminants.
