Controlled silica sand graded around the casting requirement.
IMEX supplies Egyptian foundry silica sand for metal casting
and moulding applications. The required AFS range, sieve
distribution, casting process, quantity and destination are
reviewed before confirming the commercial supply route.
The following sieve distributions, AFS fineness numbers and
pH values are reproduced from the supplied laboratory test
sheets. Final commercial supply remains subject to the
buyer-approved specification and current lot documentation.

OFFICIAL LABORATORY TEST
Chemical Analysis & EOS Certificate
Official laboratory test certificate issued by the
Egyptian Organization for Standardization & Quality
(EOS) for the submitted Yellow Sand sample.
Foundry silica sand should not be selected by product name
alone. Grain-size distribution, AFS fineness, grain shape,
fines and casting-process requirements should be reviewed
together.
AFS RangeConfirm the required grading route.
Sieve DistributionReview the complete production range.
Casting ProcessMatch the sand to the intended foundry use.
Order BasisQuantity, packing and destination matter.
BEFORE WE QUOTE
Send the required foundry basis.
01
Required AFS Grade
State the target AFS range or approved sieve specification.
02
Casting Application
Tell us the foundry process and intended metal-casting use.
03
Quantity & Packing
Trial volume, regular demand and preferred packing basis.
04
Destination
Country, destination port, Incoterm and shipment period.
COMMERCIAL ROUTE
From AFS requirement to export offer.
Once the required grading basis is confirmed,
IMEX can review product availability, documentation,
packing and shipment requirements.
