Selecting the Appropriate Sand

When choosing a sand product from the Sand category, consider the following factors:

1. Application: Determine the specific purpose for which you need the sand, whether it's for construction, landscaping, plastering, or paving.
2. Strength Requirements: Assess the strength and stability requirements of your project. Some applications may require stronger sand varieties, such as limestone sand or mortar sand.
3. Texture: Consider the desired texture of the sand. Finer sands like plastering sand are suitable for achieving a smooth finish, while coarser sands like mortar sand provide better binding properties.
4. Quantity: Determine the quantity of sand you require. The product descriptions will specify the weight (ton) or bag size (kg) available.

By considering these factors and matching them with the product descriptions, you can select the most suitable sand product for your specific use case.
