Evans Transport's Headon Sand Batching Plant: A Step-by-Step Process

At Evans Transport's state-of-the-art sand batching plant at Headon near Ivybridge, South Devon, we transform raw feed material into a variety of high-quality sand products. Here's a detailed look at our process:

1. Raw Feed Material Intake:

We begin by receiving raw feed material, which is then loaded into our sand plant's feed hopper.

2. Incline Belt and Screening:

The raw material is conveyed to the incline belt, which transports it to the screener. The screener separates the material into different size fractions:

0-2mm sand – Golf courses, building sand, concrete plants, bedding sand and horse arena sand
0-4mm sand – Concrete plants, screed and plastering
1-4mm grit – brick paving and patio’s, for laying pipes and cables
2-6mm gravel – pipe bedding, concrete blocks and used in compost mixes
Oversize – as a fill, hardcore or drainage stone
20mm all in – concrete mix/ballast
