Tiling sands

The sand is double washed to remove impurities such as clay, silt and dust for easy on-site mixing and placement. Using a washed sand that has had its impurities, fine clays, and silts removed will help to minimize the likelihood of cracking on a dry surface for grouts, renders and screed.

Our Tile and Bedding Sand is subrounded, clean, silica river sand that is graded to the ideal particle size greater than 0.6mm. It is our more popular sand used by commercial tilers for making site mixed screed as the shape and size ensures easy troweling and saves time on labour and finishing surfaces. We also offer a General Purpose Sand that is graded to a particle size of 0.3-0.6mm and features the same subrounded shape.

If you like to prepare your own floor screed for under tile use on balconies, bathroom floors and showers on-site, using River Sands Tile and Bedding Sand will help to produce a consistent mix every time.

Both our Tile and Bedding and General Purpose Sand are available in 1 tonne bulk bags for economic purposes or 20kg bags for convenience and are used by commercial tilers in all major cities along the east coast of Australia. Our 20kg bags make it easy to work within the confines of high-rise building frames, plus any left-over bags can be taken to the next job so there is barely any waste.
