At Aloro Group, we are kiln dried sand suppliers specialising in providing high-quality dry sand for your artificial grass needs. Our dried sand is specifically designed for use with synthetic grass, ensuring optimum performance and longevity of your turf.
When used as an infill material, our dried sand helps to give your artificial grass a realistic look and feel, while also providing additional stability and protection to the grass blades. It also adds weight to the turf so it isn't picked up by strong winds, and it acts as a barrier between the grass backing and the sun to ensure the turf doesn't shrink over time.

It is clean, uniform in size, and extremely durable, making it an ideal choice for synthetic turf infill.
How Much Kiln-Dried Sand for Artificial Grass Do I Need?
The amount of kiln-dried sand for artificial grass depends on the size of the area to be covered. The sand we supply is available in 20kg bags, and as a general rule, you should aim for approximately 5 to 8 kilograms of sand per square metre of grass. Aim to disperse the sand in between the blades of grass. Use a stiff bristled broom to brush the blades of turf upwards, or for larger areas, a mechanical sand spreader tool can be useful.
