Sand (Gas)

Sand with Gas Attribute

Sand with a gas attribute is a specialized construction material designed for applications where permeability and aeration are critical. While standard sand is composed of fine mineral particles, the gas attribute indicates that this sand has been treated or processed to enhance its ability to allow gases to pass through, making it particularly suitable for projects requiring superior ventilation or drainage.

This unique property is especially valuable in applications such as sports field construction, green roofs, or specialized landscaping where root aeration and moisture control are essential. In commercial settings, gas-permeable sand can be used in sub-base layers for athletic fields or in engineered systems for stormwater management. The main advantage of this sand is its ability to reduce compaction and promote healthy airflow, though it may not be ideal for load-bearing surfaces due to its loose structure. Overall, sand with a gas attribute offers enhanced drainage and aeration, making it a smart choice for projects where these qualities are a priority.
