Dansand No Grow is widely available from many popular DIY and hardware retailers, commonly found in 20kg bags that should cover around 5-10 square metres each. However, we recommend a covered storage location, as the plastic foil will not withstand heavy rain.

Dansand Top Loc ® is not a weed killer and cannot prevent weeds from sprouting from a preexisting root network. Dansand are a bit coy about how it works saying 'Dansand® joint filling sand consists primarily of common quartz sand from Denmark and sustainable natural minerals that give a high pH value.DANSAND ® joint filling sand has an optimal grain curve, which means that the material packs well in the joints. Dansand NO GROW is a joint filling sand infused with minerals to create desert like conditions by raising the pH value to naturally inhibit weeds. Having jet washed it a few weeks ago and spreading this sand into the grooves (by brush) it appears to be doing what it says on the tin. I bought this product with intention of filling the narrow gaps of block paving the crushed gravels are large and doesn’t go through therefore Wasn’t good for me and wouldn’t recommend to anyone who has paved gap less than 1. After removing weeds, discolouration and earth from in between old paving stones with a power hose, the gaps were filled with Dansand, a very fine, heavy sand which contains a weed inhibitor.

Sure, you may need to re-sand the joints every two years as the vibrations from cars or heavy footfall may loosen them over time, but with such a simple brush in application, you’ll have this job done in no time at all! Although Dansand No Grow mainly provides excellent and cost-effective protection to the joints in block paving, its lack of any active pesticides will cause it to struggle in block-paved patios that suffer from excessive weed growth. A properly executed joint is at least 3 mm wide , well-compressed and completely filled to the edge or bevel of the stone.Leave your paths, patios and driveways looking fresh and brand new with our decorative joint filling sand. The Pet Industry Federation (PIF) has today revealed the initial line-up of short, hour-long webinars taking place over the next few weeks to support its members in their professional development. Joint filling products with binding agents may leave a gray/white haze on the stones known as efflorescence. You can minimise the formation of moss and algae by ensuring that the joints are always filled to the top with Dansand joint filling sand.

To use our product DANSAND TOP LOCK® polymeric/ Firm Fix block paving fix at this time of the year (January) is very risky, the weather is often rainy, and the temperature is often also too low ( Recommended temp 10 to 30 degrees as shown on the bag), so the risk for that the joints are not setting properly is very high, due to the hardening conditions are not optimal at this time of the year. Weeds that are spread by the wind easily find a foothold between your tiles, especially if there is a lack of joint material. We love how simple it is to apply Dansand No Grow, requiring only that you remove any existing weeds and lightly wet the joints between your blocks to produce tough yet elastic joints.The mineral increases the pH-value and the ZAR value of the silica sand, creating an “unfriendly” environment that does not provide nourishment for weed plants.
