Fine, Washed Plaster Sand

Fine, washed plaster sand is a high-quality construction aggregate known for its smooth texture and cleanliness. Produced by washing natural sand to remove impurities, this material is free from clay, silt, and dust, making it ideal for applications where a clean, consistent finish is essential.

The fine grading of this sand ensures a smooth, workable mix, which is especially important for plastering walls and ceilings, rendering, and creating mortar for bricklaying. Its washed attribute reduces the risk of cracks and improves adhesion, resulting in a more durable and attractive finish. In addition to plastering, fine, washed sand is commonly used for tile bedding, grouting, and as a base for pavers in both residential and commercial projects. The main advantage of this sand is its superior workability and clean finish, though it is not suitable for structural concrete or applications requiring coarser aggregates.
