Play Pit Sand
Play pit sand is a washed, hygienic natural sand used in children's sandpits and play areas. Since children come into direct contact with this sand, cleanliness, grain shape and dust content are decisive factors. Washed, sieved, dust-free and rounded silica sand provides a clean and safe play surface in play pits.
How to Choose Play Pit Sand?
A few properties determine the right play pit sand. Grain shape matters; rounded grains are gentler on children's skin than angular sand. Being washed and having a low dust content is essential both for hygiene and to prevent dust from rising. A controlled grain size distribution keeps the sand easy to shape and at the right consistency for play. In play areas it is essential that the sand is clean, sieved and free of foreign matter.
