Silica Arena Sand Suppliers in Dorset

MB Wilkes is one of the few suppliers of silica arena sand in Dorset. Silica arena sand is widely used for equestrian, leisure or construction applications and is perfect for riding arenas, lunges and gallops due to their many benefits. The angular grains maintain firmness whilst providing a comfortable and impact absorbing surface for both horses and riders.

As a leading supplier in Dorset, we only source silica arena sand with a sub-angular grain and low clay content as this not only promotes firmness but provides efficient drainage. Sand with a rounded grain creates a surface that rides deep, which may lead to compaction, water-logging, and eventually failure of the surface and its sub-layers. Silica arena sand that is not designed for equestrian use is also likely to result in an unsuccessful arena surface that could increase fatigue and possibly cause injury to the horse. With our expertly sourced materials, you can guarantee that your arena is supplied with the absolute highest quality silica sand, promoting improved riding as well as a stunning overall appearance.

We offer the best service, price and building materials in your local area, providing a delivery service you can rely on. For further information about our silica arena sand in Dorset, or to speak to one of our experts, contact us today on 01258 857465.

Silica arena sand aftercare

All newly laid silica arena sand requires a settling period before use, a process which can be sped up by watering the sand. To maintain the firmness of the silica arena sand, it is advised to water the sand during months of dry spells. Additionally, rubber chip and fibre will improve the quality of the sand.
