Reject Sand

Reject Sand is an unscreened, unwashed by-product from the production of building sand, valued for its practicality and cost-effectiveness. It is a reliable choice for trench backfill, bedding layers under membranes, and preparatory layers prior to concreting in construction projects.

Product Details

Reject Sand consists of material taken directly from the same pit as building sand, but without the additional screening or washing processes. This gives it a coarser texture and a variable particle size, making it suitable for use as a trench backfill for services, a bedding layer beneath membranes, or as a preparatory layer before pouring concrete.

Also known as fill sand, Reject Sand is not intended for use in applications where a clean, fine sand is required, but it excels in bulk fill and general groundwork where cost and practicality are priorities.

This Sand provides contractors with a straightforward, economical solution for a range of site preparation and utility installation tasks.
