MM40 Sport Sand Moist Mansil 40 Bulk Bag

Moist Mansil MM40 Sport Sand & Top Dressing – Bulk Bag - Premium sports grade silica sand for top dressing, renovation & construction of turf surfaces. If you’re responsible for building or maintaining high-performance turf surfaces — football, rugby, golf, winter sports, or multi-use amenity turf — the Moist Mansil MM40 is engineered to deliver the sand-based performance your surface demands. Key Features & Benefits Specialist silica sand: The MM40 grade is part of the renowned “Mansil” silica sand range produced by Mansfield Sand Company at their Two Oaks Quarry; it has the particle size, consistency and drainage characteristics required for premium sports turf build and renovation. Ideal for renovation & top-dressing: Whether you’re refreshing a high-use playing field or constructing a new surface, MM40 helps unlock rootzone porosity, improve drainage, and give turf roots something solid to anchor into. For example, one grounds manager used “two tonnes… top dress with MM40” on a green and “ninety tonnes… on the football pitches” to transform heavy clay profiles. Performance benefits: Enhances drainage and rooting depth by breaking up heavy soil pans and improving porosity. Provides a consistent, well-graded sand profile for improved playing surface stability and durability. Suitable for use on a wide range of turf applications — from winter sport pitches to fine turf installations. Technical Specifications & Usage Guide Grade: MM40 – medium sand size (“Moist Mansil 40 – Medium Sand”) as referenced in the technical brochure. Supply form: Loose tipped (ideal for large scale renovation/top-dressing Usage applications: Top-dressing of existing turf surfaces. Re-profiling or renovation of sports pitches, golf greens, winter sports arenas. New construction of sand-based rootzones where high drainage and uniform sand profile are required. Installation Tips: Ensure full removal of thatch/debris and open up the surface as required (scarification, aeration) before applying MM40. For example: “take down to 10mm, Verti-drain, top dress with MM40”. Apply at a specified rate (depending on surface specification) and work the sand in as per turf-maintenance best practice. Consider compaction, roll-in, and post-dress watering/traffic to settle the sand and integrate it with the turf surface. Why it matters: A high-quality graded sand such as MM40 is significantly superior to generic sands or blends in delivering drainage, root penetration, durability and consistent playing quality. Why Choose MM40 Sport Sand for Your Project? When you’re managing a high-use sports surface, every component counts. The rootzone and sand layer determine how the surface drains, how roots grow, how stable and true the turf is under play. By choosing MM40, you invest in specialist sports-grade sand engineered for this exact purpose — rather than a general purpose construction sand. As one turf manager put it: “We are already seeing the MM40 improve drainage and rooting.” Ordering & Delivery Available in Bulk bags or bulk loose tipped delivery over 10 tonnes; please provide site access, tipping position, required tonnage and lead time. For large pitches/installations we recommend ordering well in advance to ensure delivery and tipping schedule aligns with your renovation window.
