Sand with Deq Attribute

Sand with the Deq attribute is a versatile construction aggregate known for its fine, granular texture and consistent quality. The Deq attribute typically indicates that the sand meets specific standards for cleanliness and gradation, making it suitable for a wide range of construction and landscaping applications.

The fine nature of this sand allows for excellent compaction and smooth finishes, which is ideal for use in masonry work, mortar mixes, and as a leveling base for pavers and patios. Its clean, well-graded composition reduces dust and improves workability, making it a preferred choice for both residential and commercial projects. Common uses include bedding for pipes, playground surfaces, and as a component in concrete mixes. The main advantage of Deq sand is its reliability and performance, though its fine texture may not be suitable for drainage applications where coarser aggregates are required.
