Types of Silica Sand Supplied by Sico in Saudi Arabia

Glass Grade Silica Sand

We offer a comprehensive range of Glass Grade Silica Sand, leveraging extensive industry expertise and strong partnerships with reputable market suppliers. Our product range is processed using advanced technology at the vendor’s end, ensuring high quality and consistency. Glass, plastic, paper, and similar industries rely on our products for their diverse applications. Additionally, to guarantee a flawless selection, each product undergoes rigorous quality testing under the supervision of our expert quality controllers. Glass Grade Silica Sand is renowned for its chemical stability and excellent wear resistance. This flavorless sand is found in materials like amethyst, quartz, and chalcedony. While it is brittle, it remains resistant to cracking. Its anisotropic nature allows it to withstand high temperatures and fire. Moreover, this silica sand demonstrates remarkable resistance to both alkalis and acids. Key characteristics include exceptional insulation properties, UV resistance, high dispersion levels, amorphous structure, low radioactivity, superior mechanical strength, high-temperature durability, and distinctive suspension capabilities.

Foundry Grade Silica Sand

Foundry Grade Silica Sand is specifically processed to meet the rigorous requirements of the foundry industry. It is valued for its high purity and consistent grain size, making it ideal for molding and core-making applications. The sand exhibits excellent thermal stability, high refractoriness, and minimal expansion, ensuring precise castings with reduced defects.
Foundry Sand, often referred to as casting sand, is a premium-quality silica sand used to create molds for metal casting processes. Metal castings form the backbone of many of India’s engineering and industrial sectors, making foundry sand an essential material for these industries.

Due to the stringent requirements of foundry applications, only high-quality silica sand with specific characteristics is suitable:

Grain Form: The sand grains must be rounded with high sphericity to ensure uniform displacement of the sand and binder mixture during mold preparation.
Grain Size: Fine sand produces a smooth casting surface but requires more binding material, while coarse sand demands less binder but results in a rougher casting surface.
Composition: Higher silica content indicates greater purity, which is critical for high-temperature applications like iron and steel casting.
The superior thermal properties, purity, and versatility of foundry sand make it indispensable for precision-driven metal casting processes.

Construction Grade Silica Sand

Construction Grade Silica Sand is a versatile material widely used in the construction industry due to its high silica content, durability, and consistent quality. It is an essential ingredient in various construction applications, offering strength, stability, and longevity to structures.Silica Sand for Construction is mined from the earth and processed into sand-sized particles through crushing and sieving. Mixed with water and filtered, it produces a uniform grain size ideal for a wide range of construction applications, including concrete, cement, and drywall. River Sand is commonly used in concrete, plaster, and other building projects. However, the widespread illegal extraction of river sand has significant negative impacts on the environment. To address these concerns, our Silica Sand is ethically sourced, carefully screened, and treated to remove dirt and organic contaminants, ensuring an environmentally responsible alternative. The uniform grain size of our sand makes it especially suitable for smooth plaster finishes and other precision applications. By choosing our Silica Sand, you support sustainable construction practices while benefiting from high-quality materials tailored to meet your project’s needs.
