What is Natural & Manufactured Sand (M-Sand)?
Natural sand, also known as river sand, is a granular material that is naturally formed by the erosion of rocks over thousands of years. It is widely used in construction due to its fine texture and excellent properties that make it a perfect aggregate for concrete and masonry work.
Manufactured sand is a superior substitute for natural sand. It is produced by crushing hard granite rock into fine particles that are carefully graded and washed to remove impurities. M-Sand offers several benefits over natural sand, including:
Consistent Quality: M-Sand is produced in a controlled environment, ensuring a uniform shape, size, and gradation, which results in higher-quality concrete.
Zero Impurities: Unlike natural sand, M-Sand is free from silt, clay, and other impurities that can compromise the strength of concrete.
Environmental Sustainability: Using M-Sand reduces the depletion of natural riverbeds, making it an environmentally responsible choice.
Shiv’s Assets Group is a trusted supplier and exporter of high-quality Natural Sand and Manufactured Sand from Bharuch, Gujarat, India. Both are essential aggregates used in the production of concrete, mortar, and other construction materials. We ensure a consistent supply of sand that meets the rigorous demands of large-scale international projects.
