About this item

  • It carries the NextGel technology. That is the same core technology behind Techniseal flagship HP NextGel, and it is what gives SmartSand its cleaner application and faster wetting compared with conventional jointing sand.
  • Techniseal calls it the cost-effective alternative. Their own literature recommends SmartSand for everyday paver installations that are not exposed to substantial vehicular circulation, and HP NextGel for everything heavier.
  • Faster wetting means less standing around. On a residential patio, water activation is where the schedule slips. Faster wetting shortens that step.
  • Built specifically for interlocking pavers. Techniseal lists interlocking pavers, concrete pavers, clay pavers, and wet cast pavers as approved surfaces.
  • 15 year limited warranty on a product priced for volume residential work.
  • Cleaner application means fewer callbacks. A cleaner install is a cleaner looking patio at handover, which is the part the homeowner actually judges.

Why SmartSand?

The Everyday Paver Sand With NextGel Technology, Priced For The Job That Does Not Need HP

Most residential patio and walkway jobs do not need a high performance polymeric sand. They need one that goes down clean, wets fast, and holds. That is the exact job SmartSand was built for.

Where SmartSand Works

SmartSand is the right call on standard residential hardscape where the conditions are normal.

  • Residential paver patios
  • Walkways and garden paths
  • Residential driveways with light vehicular use
  • Interlocking concrete paver installations
  • Clay paver and wet cast paver work
  • Flat installations in normal, non-humid conditions
  • Larger residential jobs where the budget matters

Where SmartSand Should NOT Be Used (Straight From the Manufacturer)

Not rated for heavy vehicular traffic. Techniseal lists SmartSand for pedestrian and light vehicular only. For commercial entries, industrial installs, or anything carrying real weight, step up to HP NextGel.

Not rated for high humidity areas. Techniseal lists the installation area as normal. Pool decks and constantly damp surfaces call for HP NextGel.

Not rated for sloped surfaces. Techniseal lists flat only. On a graded patio or a sloped driveway, use HP NextGel.

Not for joints wider than 1 inch, and not listed for natural stone or porcelain tile. Those need a different product in the line.

Questions about this product

Ask a question ›
How wide can the joints be?
The manufacturer rates this product for joints up to 1". Measure the widest joint on the job, not the average; if it is wider than that, pick a sand rated for wider joints or use the project finder.
How many bags do I need?
Coverage depends on paver size, joint width and joint depth, so a bag count from a square-foot number alone can be off by half. The coverage calculator uses this product's own data sheet figures: enter your area, paver size and joint width and it gives you the bag count.
Which colors does it come in?
3 options: Granite, Tan, Urban Grey. Screens shift color, so check a color sample against your own pavers before ordering full bags if the shade matters.
What sizes are available?
Size: 50 lb. The price shown is per 50 lb unless you pick another option.
When will it ship?
In-stock orders placed before 2:00 PM Eastern on a weekday ship the same day from our Williamstown, New Jersey warehouse by UPS or FedEx Ground. The cut-off is when the carriers start arriving; order after it, or on a weekend, and it ships the next business day. Just missed it? Call (856) 418-4895: if the carrier has not picked up yet we do our best to get it out the same day. The box above the Add to cart button shows the live countdown and an arrival estimate for your ZIP. Phones are answered 24/7; the warehouse itself is open for pick-ups and returns Monday to Friday 8 to 5 and Saturday 8 to noon, Eastern. For a pick-up, call first so we can pull your order.
Can I buy by the pallet?
Yes. Full pallets ship by freight truck, so we price the delivery for your address instead of guessing. Request a pallet quote or call (856) 418-4895 and we will call you back with a delivered price.
Where are the technical and safety data sheets?
The manufacturers' technical and safety data sheets are collected in the TDS and SDS library. Coverage, cure time and application temperatures on this page come from those sheets.
Is contractor or bulk pricing available?
No. One price for everyone: the price on the page is what contractors, landscapers and homeowners all pay. For full pallets, request a pallet quote and we will price the freight to your address.
