Silica Sand

Silica Sand

The use of a particular mineral used as a pigment and extender in a paint formulation depends on the physical properties of the mineral. These include Brightness, Particle Size and Shape, Divisibility, oil absorption, Viscosity and Resistance to Chemicals, Heat and Moisture. Foundry Grade silica Sand for foundry Industries.

•We are manufacturing around 12000 to 15000 Tons of this Sand per month. The Most Important of these properties are summarized below:


Glassmaking: silica sand is the primary component of all types of standard and specialty glass. It provides the essential SiO2 component of glass formulation and its chemical purity is the primary determinant of color, clarity and strength. Industrial sand is used to produce flat glass for building and automotive use, container glass for foods and beverages, and tableware. Specialty glass applications include test tubes and other scientific tools, incandescent and fluorescent lamps, television and computer CRT monitors.
