Sand Grain Size: 0.3-0.6mm Similar to table salt.
Description & Use:
Premium quality kiln dried, natural beige coloured sand.
The sand is dust free and hence finds specific application for beach themed photoshoots and is the sand to use for "message in a bottle" promotions.
Colourfast and suitable for use underwater, our clients have also used this sand for layering in glassware, and with candles.
Merchandising:
The sand's dry and clean nature makes it ideal for corporate and merchandising displays. The sand is non static and can be creatively "drifted" to form shadows when used for photographic assignments.
Scale Models:
It is difficult to absolutely scale natural sands. To model beach, river or desert sand at HO scale requires a grain size similar to clay minerals at around five microns.
Considering both availability and convenience for working, the finest grain size of modelling sand is in a size range of 0.1 to 0.3mm ( 100 to 300 microns).
Top Tip: When attempting to scale a sandy surface use both the finest sand available, and a uniformly coloured sand, for instance our Beach Dune Sand, in order for it not to look grainy. A through graded sand with different coloured grains like our "Outback Terracotta" will provide a more rugged appearance.

Colour & Form:
We take great care to provide accurate images, however, shade variations can occur both with the products themselves and with ambient lighting.
It can also be difficult to adequately describe and visualise grain size, we do, however, show products in context with additional images.
For both colour and form please request a sample if these factors are critical to your application.
