GLASSMAKING

When you are looking for the best sand for the best finished product, look no further, SmartSand has the capability to give you the best final product in the market. With our pure white silica industrial sand, we offer the best of all worlds when it comes to high quality glass manufacturing.

Silica sand is the primary component of all types of standard and specialty glass. It provides the essential SiO2 component of glass formulation, and its chemical purity is the primary determinant of color, clarity and strength. Industrial sand is used to produce flat glass for building and automotive use, container glass for foods and beverages, and tableware. In its pulverized form, ground silica is required for production of fiberglass insulation and reinforcing glass fibers. Specialty glass applications include test tubes and other scientific tools, incandescent and fluorescent lamps, television and computer CRT monitors.
