Consistency

Sand engineered on Kayasand plant are proven to produce concrete of the highest quality, with higher strengths, durability and consistency. They enable significant reductions in cementitious content, costs are carbon emissions.

Realise its value in concrete.

Binds better with cement than natural sand and flows and finishes better too.

Savings on additives & cement

Make great performing concrete, yet significantly reduce the levels of VMAs, water reducers, setting retardants and cement needed.

Better control of fine material ratios

The ability to fine-tune the 600µ to 75µ range provides excellent flexibility for meeting stringent specifications and specialised applications

Aligns with sustainability initiatives

Made from crusher dust and recycled materials using a process that conserves natural resources and makes strong concrete with 20% less cement.

Proven technology.

Used in over 320 plants worldwide.

It's processing is environmentally sustainable!

Premium product from 'waste'

A sustainable & resilient supply.

That makes the most of what’s taken out of the ground. Crusher dust. Particles all passing. Recycled glass and concrete. Slag.

Read the evidence for yourself.

Engineered sand is a viable replacement for natural sand in concrete and significantly contributes to the industry hitting their carbon emissions targets by 2050.
