Silica sand, used as beach sand, is also known as white sand and is preferred by many tourism businesses due to its non-stick property to the body. Tourism enterprises with fine and white sandy beaches attract great interest from domestic and foreign tourists. For this reason, choosing white sand, known as silica sand, in beach projects provides a great advantage for businesses operating in the tourism sector.
Beach sands are formed as a result of weathering, erosion, and deposition. Although some beach and marine sands consist of a single mineral type (such as quartz, carbonate, or silica), they generally consist of mixtures of mineral grains obtained from various sources. Which minerals and grain sizes are to be expected depends on the geology of the source rocks or the types of organisms that biologically produce carbonate.
With its chemical and physical properties, silica sand is primarily used as a raw material for cement in construction and building materials, as well as in areas such as beach volleyball courts, children's playgrounds, golf courses, carpet fields, horse racing tracks and manege, garden and landscape, etc. One of these usage areas is the utilization of silica sand as beach sand in the tourism sector.
Silica sand has high resistance to abrasion, weathering conditions, and high chemical stability. Thanks to its color and chemical purity (min. 99% SiO2), silica sands ensure the manufacturing of products with the desired performance in the building industry.

Prior to the beach sand application, a series of investigations and analyses regarding the characteristics of the relevant region should be carried out. Following the evaluation, the most suitable silica sand for the application area must be supplied.
