Dansand No Grow 20kg Easy Fix Brush in Jointing Paving Sand | Ready Mixed Setting Sand for Patio, Block Paving Sand, Suitable for All Paving Types - Grey

Product Information

Dansand® joint filler is not a weed-killer; it creates a poor growth environment for weeds so that seeds cannot set root. The only positive is that a 1cm wide joint has stayed fairly full and the sand there seems surprisingly resilient to prodding. Paving stones must be laid on a sustainable gravel and sand layer in accordance with current standards for paving work. The additive has a naturally high pH value, which creates a nutrient-poor growth environment in the joints.

If you cover your newly laid joints, the hardening will stop and the binding agent will become lost. Once the paving is swept clean of all residual Dansand Top Lock®, use your garden hose with the nozzle set to mist. Next, you can use a high-pressure cleaner, but be careful not to damage the paving stones or the substrate. To this end, they swallow pebbles, gravel and sand, and Dansand’s silica sand is used as a dietary supplement for smaller birds. Airborne weed seeds: To avoid airborne seeds from setting roots, ensure that the joint is filled in its entire height – 20 mm minimum.It’s especially attractive to those responsible for keeping areas weed-free and should become a regular purchase in Spring when people clean outdoor spaces. The joint material must not be classified as hazardous according to the Danish Ministry of the Environment’s rules for classification and labelling. 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! As an alternative you can scrape out the existing joints with a suitable tool and refill the joints with Dansand joint filling sand.

The Landscape Juice Network (LJN) is the largest and fastest growing professional landscaping and horticultural association in the United Kingdom. To avoid weeds in the joints and displacements in the coating, the joint must always be filled to the full height and be completely free of soil and other organic material.Mixing Dansand Top Lock ® with water will lead to a joint that will not harden and will also give a marked white haze on your paving. Dansand Top Loc ® is not a weed killer and cannot prevent weeds from sprouting from a preexisting root network. Therefore, familiarise yourself with the applicable national and / or local regulations before starting the joint work.

In a block paving installation with individual paver heights of at least 4cm and a joint width between 3-10 mm, one 20kg bag of Dansand No Grow will cover between 5-10 square metres.Thanks to this filler’s specially designed formula consisting of tiny beads of kiln-dried sand, you’ll find that its naturally nutrient-poor minerals work to suppress weed growth by drying out the seeds before they take root. As the water evaporates, the solution solidifies into a glassy solid (I guess this glues the sand particles together keeping them in the joint, keeping dirt out, and preventing root establishment). Likewise, it is important that you have are maintaining your joints on a regular basis, making sure that they are always completely filled. 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.

I bought this as I don’t want to have to do as much patio maintenance, i still had to bend over and pull grass out. Once all the Dansand Top Lock ® is swept into the joints, it is important to sweep the paving surface completely clean with a soft broom. I was considering Dansand No Grow Block Paving Sand - brushing it in with heavy brush then sweeping excess away with fine brush and misting with light spray from the hose pipe to set.
