Where the Aggregate Is the Architecture

Alliance Silica® supplies feature-grade natural silica sand for architectural concrete, exposed-aggregate façades, board-formed walls, precast cladding, terrazzo (poured-in-place and tile) and polished concrete floors. Tight grain distribution and consistent natural colour deliver a uniform matrix, a clean polish and repeatable surface finish across production batches.

We work with precast manufacturers, terrazzo specialists, polished concrete contractors and the architects who specify them - matching grade, grain shape and colour to the specific concrete system, with batch-to-batch consistency through the full project volume.

When the Mix Is the Finish

Architectural concrete is unforgiving. Exposed aggregate shows every variation in grain, colour and distribution. Board-formed walls and precast cladding read every inconsistency in the matrix. Terrazzo and polished concrete floors reveal the aggregate as the hero of the finish itself. The sand isn't hidden - it's what you specify, pour and polish to.

Alliance Silica® supplies natural silica sand selected for feature performance in concrete. We grade and screen to the distribution your mix design requires, source across our network to achieve consistent natural colour through the full project volume, and supply without dyes, coatings or bulking fillers - so the tone you sample is the tone that cures on site.
