An international renowned food chain recently constructed a new store in Bargara and has used Sunstate Sands’ certified Bio – Retention Filter Blend to the filter the storm water run-off from their car park and the surrounding area. The concept of the Bio-retention basin to slow down the absorption of the water from the car park and surrounds (that may contain oils and other pollutants) long enough for the specifically chosen plants to absorb those pollutants and thus allowing cleaner water to flow through to the under lying storm water drains. This is now compulsory by the State Government in most new developments and sub divisions. To achieve this result, a strict specification must be adhered to ensure the correct flow rate to slow the water down while having sufficient organic and natural chemical content within the mix to promote healthy plant life during the initial stages.

Sunstate Sands Bio Filter Blend can be tailored to the specific project requirements and can be independently tested and certified to ensure the desired result is achieved. For more information, please contact Marc via email

Bargara Golf Club recently constructed 2 new holes on their prestigious golf course, and chose Sunstate Sands’ pure white Bunker Blend for the new bunkers. Sunstate Sands recently had their sand tested, and with the assistance of the Australian Golf Course Superintendents Association (ASGSA) developed a unique blend of their different natural sands that complied with the very tight guidelines. As most golf superintendents would agree, it very difficult to find a sand that looks good, is easy to maintain, holds itself up on the verticals and doesn’t bury (plug) the ball when it lands. Bargara’s superintendent says “that he is very happy with the final results, and he has no negative feedback from the members, and they are the key people to keep happy.”

Bundaberg Regional Council has recently installed a new playground at Schuhkraft Park in Bargara, and have chosen Sunstate Sands’ certified playground sand to compliment the surroundings and to provide a safe, soft landing for the children playing on it. As highlighted by one of the designers of the park, “sand gives another element of play for the children. If they don’t want to play on the equipment, they can simply build a castle or create whatever else they like using their imagination.” One of the other benefits of sand as a playground surface is that it is clean (as the fines have been washed out) and can be easily brushed off and does not stain clothing.
