Products & services

Sallies Silica manufactures a wide range of dry graded sand. Product sizes range from coarse silica gravel or grit, up to lumped rock, and down to fine sand granules. The chemical composition of our products is of the highest purity in South Africa as it is mined from a uniform quartzite ore body and processed in a series of crushing and screening steps, followed by washing and homogenisation over various high frequency vibrating screens. The products are dried and packaged according to client requirements and delivered across Southern Africa.
