Sand (Usga)
Applications & Uses
USGA Sand
USGA sand is a high-quality, precisely graded sand that meets the strict specifications set by the United States Golf Association. This material is typically composed of sub-angular to rounded quartz particles, processed to ensure consistent particle size distribution and minimal impurities.
The USGA attribute is crucial for applications where drainage, stability, and uniformity are essential. Its carefully controlled gradation allows for excellent water infiltration and prevents compaction, making it ideal for golf course greens, sports fields, and high-performance turf systems. In residential and commercial settings, USGA sand is also used for topdressing lawns, constructing sand-based root zones, and as a base for synthetic turf installations. The main advantage of USGA sand is its superior drainage and playability, though it may be more costly than general-purpose sands due to its specialized production.
