Polymeric sand

Term · Industrial and trades · MLC-T-IND-004407

A finely graded sand mixed with polymer binders, used to fill the joints between pavers. When activated with water, the polymers harden, creating a flexible yet firm joint that resists weed growth, insect infestation, and erosion. This material provides stability to the paver system and reduces maintenance requirements.
