Reinforced Rootzone

Mansfield Sand offers a range of Reinforced Rootzones designed to maximize the use of natural turf surfaces while maintaining the high standards demanded by today’s sports industry. Mansfield Sand’s reinforcement technology provides stability and durability to all sand-dominated Rootzones, allowing the pitch to remain free-draining and consistent across the entire surface.

Products include:

Fibre Reinforced Rootzone – reinforced with polypropylene fibres.
Fibrelastic Rootzone – reinforced with polypropylene fibres and flexible Elastane fibres.
Fibresand – particularly advantageous when grass cover has been reduced due to heavy usage and wear during the winter period.

Sand Soil Rootzones

Understanding the demands of turf managers, Mansfield Sand ensures that their rootzones contain only the highest quality materials. For renovation or construction, the company’s superior rootzone blend, Mansil 40 Silica Sand with quality screened topsoil, guarantees the perfect start.

Sand Compost Rootzones

Mansfield Sand offers a range of premium quality sand organic material blends, ideal for creating a rootzone rich in organic material. These blends aid in the retention of nutrients and provide increased drought resistance.

Top Dressing

Produced for the fine turf market, Mansfield Sand’s Soil Top Dressing is a manufactured homogenous product made from their own premium silica sands combined with top quality soils. All components are passed through a sterilising unit and a 3mm screen to produce an easy-to-spread, stone and pebble-free dressing. Mansfield Sand also offers bespoke dressing blends and can incorporate soil amendments into any product.

Mansil Silica Sand Sports Range

Sourced from the company’s Two Oaks Quarry in Mansfield, the Mansil range of Silica Sands is predominantly used in the construction and maintenance of a wide variety of sports surfaces, including winter sports pitches, golf courses, bowling greens, and all amenity turf areas.
