Silica Sand

Uniform particle size distribution of silica sand granules ensures consistent spreading behaviour during broadcast application. Granules of similar size and density distribute evenly across the target area, preventing localised overdosing or underdosing.

Our Quartz Series and Geosil Series offer multiple particle size ranges tailored to granular formulation requirements. Common sizes used in agrochemicals range from 0.2 mm to 2.0 mm, with custom sizing available for specific formulation and application equipment requirements.

Yes. Silica sand granules are coated with liquid or solid active ingredients in drum coating processes. The inert sand core provides mechanical strength and consistent size, while the active ingredient coating ensures controlled release and even distribution upon soil application.

Yes. Silica sand is used as an inert diluent in fertilizer blends to adjust nutrient concentration, improve bulk density uniformity, and facilitate physical blending compatibility between different fertilizer components in NPK and micronutrient blends.

No. Silica sand is chemically inert and does not react with or affect the solubility, stability, or biological availability of agrochemical active ingredients. It serves purely as a physical carrier and does not influence the chemical performance of the formulation.
