Premium Sand Washing Equipment for South Africa’s Toughest Material Processing Challenges
Struggling with Contaminated or Low-Quality Sand Output?
Inconsistent sand quality, high moisture content, and excessive fines can cripple your construction projects or mineral processing operations. South Africa’s demanding mining and infrastructure sectors require sand washing solutions that deliver high-purity aggregates, water efficiency, and minimal downtime. Our advanced sand washing systems are engineered to maximize productivity while reducing operational costs—ensuring your output meets stringent industry standards.
How Does Our Sand Washing Equipment Work?
Our modular sand washing units combine scrubbing, classification, dewatering, and sludge management into a seamless process:
- Feed & Pre-Screening: Removes oversized debris before washing.
- Aggressive Scrubbing: Dislodges clay and contaminants from sand particles.
- Hydraulic Classification: Separates fines via cyclones or sieve bends.
- Dewatering & Stockpiling: Produces drip-free, market-ready sand at up to 95% solids recovery.
Ideal for:
✔ Construction sand ✔ Silica sand for glass/industrial use ✔ Crushed stone wash-down ✔ Tailings reprocessing
