Natural variation in color is expected with this product. Always mix sand from multiple bags together if color uniformity is critical for your specific paving or rendering finish.
To ensure the best results, store the 25kg bags in a dry, elevated location to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect the weight and consistency of your mixes. When preparing to use, inspect the bags for any punctures that may have occurred during transit. Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves and dust masks when handling the material. This product is compatible with standard Portland cements and various additives used in modern masonry. Once opened, use the bags promptly to avoid moisture content changes that occur due to environmental exposure.
