Our Kent Medium Contract Sand has a total sand content of 96%, followed by 4% Clay & Silt. The free-draining nature of this sand is confirmed by the predominance of medium sand (0.25-0.50mm) and lower proportions of coarse sand (0.50-1.0mm) and fine sand (0.15-0.25mm). Furthermore, this sand has a saturated hydraulic conductivity of 151mm/hr.
This contract sand is also ideal for a wide range of landscape applications where a very free-draining subsoil is required, including the planting of larger root-balled trees in both soft and hard landscape situations, podium landscapes, SuDS Rain Gardens and SuDS Bio Retention Systems.
Kent Medium Contract Sand is fully tested and accredited by the UK’s leading Soil Science and Landscape Engineering Consultants, Tim O’Hare Associates
