Silica Sand

Silica Sand
  • Low Iron Silica Sand (WS1)

Our fine silica sand can be used for a variety of industrial processes, including:

  • Glassmaking
  • Chemical production
  • Ceramics
  • Water filtration
  • Metal casting/production
  • Paint and coatings
  • Construction

It is also extremely effective for use in oil and gas recovery by reinforcing rock fissures, improving flow, and resisting chemical attack in corrosive environments.
