FAQ

Common Questions

What purity and grades of silica sand do you supply?

+

High-purity silica sand at SiO2 99.5% and above, available from Special Grade through Grade-3. The grade determines the iron oxide ceiling, which is the parameter that matters most for clear glass production.

What particle sizes are available?

+

From 30 to 12,000 microns. Sizing is specified per order - foundry and glass applications sit at very different points in that range, so tell us the end use and we will confirm the correct fraction.

Where is the sand sourced?

+

Aqaba, Jordan. Single-origin supply from a Jordanian deposit, with proximity to port keeping freight cost low for Gulf and Mediterranean destinations.

What applications does it serve?

+

Container and flat glass manufacturing, foundry moulding sand, water filtration media, ceramics, frac sand for oilfield use, and construction. Each application has its own grade and size specification.

What inspection and analysis is provided?

+

Certificate of analysis covering SiO2 content, iron oxide, alumina, loss on ignition, and particle size distribution, with independent inspection at load port.

How is silica sand shipped?

+

Bulk in vessel hold, or in 1 MT jumbo bags for container shipment where the receiving plant handles bagged material. Moisture specification is agreed in the contract.
