We have a hugely diverse selection of different sands for a wide variety of uses. From concrete, bricklaying, paving and landscaping through to the creation of a simple but extremely effective children’s sand pit MGS can meet your sand requirements.
Packing Sand
A naturally occurring sand with a maximum particle size of 3mm. A fatty packing sand, screened on site – which may vary slightly from time to time depending on availability.
It is unwashed and has a high clay content. Perfect for use as backfill and as sand beds under concrete slabs.
Concrete Sand
A coarse graded material used as a “lightweighting agent” in traditional sand materials for concreting. Our concrete sand is beige in colour.
White Brick Sand
As the name implies, brick sand is the preferred sand of bricklayers. It can also be known as fatty sand or brickie’s sand, and has a clay component that makes it sticky.
When blended with cement and lime to make mortar, the resulting mix is termed ‘fatty’, which means it is easy to work with when laying bricks, as it is compressible and oozes out of the joints. It is a major component of brick and block laying mortar and bagging for walls. The clay content can leave colour on hands or clothing.
It’s available in yellow and white to allow for different mortar colours.
Varieties:
- M3 Lang Lang White Brick Sand
- M3 Skye White Brick Sand
White Washed Sand
Our washed sand is a medium graded, clean sand which feels soft to the touch. It has a very consistent particle size, runs easily when dry and is generally a white or yellowy-white colour.
It is perfect for sweeping between your paving stones or in a sandpit for the kids. It’s also a component of concrete, sand cement and other render mixes.
