Garnet Sand Grades We Supply to Jeddah

We supply garnet sand — abrasive garnet — in the main commercial grades used across Saudi Arabia.

Blasting Grade Garnet – 30/60 Mesh

The standard grade for abrasive blasting and surface preparation. Produces a clean angular surface profile that exceeds Sa 2.5 requirements on steel substrates. Used for pipeline coating preparation, steel structure surface prep and marine anti-corrosion work. Hardness 7.5-8 Mohs. Free silica below 1%.

Blasting Grade Garnet – 20/40 Mesh

Coarser grade for faster cut rates and deeper surface profiles. Used where specifications call for a higher anchor profile — heavy mill scale removal, deeply corroded structural steel and offshore fabrication work.

Waterjet Cutting Grade – 80 Mesh

Fine garnet for waterjet cutting applications. Uniform particle size produces consistent cut quality on steel, aluminium, stone and composites. Used in precision fabrication workshops, defence manufacturing and architectural stonecutting.

Fine Finishing Grade – 80/120 Mesh

For fine surface finishing before painting or coating. Common in automotive and aerospace component preparation and precision instrument manufacturing.

Garnet Sand for Jeddah and Western Saudi Arabia

Most garnet supply in Saudi Arabia is distributed through facilities on the east coast — Jubail and Dammam. For buyers in Jeddah, Yanbu, Tabuk and the surrounding western region, sourcing from UAE-based importers through Jeddah port is often faster and more cost-effective than inland freight from the eastern province.

Jazeera International ships from our Dubai warehouse directly to Jeddah Islamic Port and King Abdullah Economic City (KAEC) port. Road transit from Jeddah port to your warehouse or site adds one day. For buyers in Yanbu, delivery via Yanbu Industrial Port is available. We also supply Khobar, Dammam and Riyadh — see the delivery table below.

This supply route is particularly relevant for Vision 2030 construction projects in the western region. NEOM, The Red Sea Project and the Jeddah Waterfront Development collectively represent the largest surface preparation requirement in Saudi Arabia this decade — and most of that work is in western Saudi Arabia, away from the established eastern supply chain.

Garnet Sand Applications in Jeddah and Saudi Arabia

Oil and gas contractors use blasting grade garnet for pipeline external coating preparation — typically to Sa 2.5 or Sa 3 cleanliness with a 40-70 micron surface profile. Garnet meets NACE and SSPC standards and produces significantly less dust than copper slag, which matters for enclosed spaces and sites near populated areas.

Ship repair facilities at Jeddah Islamic Port use garnet for hull blasting and dry dock surface preparation. Garnet does not produce sparks during blasting — a safety requirement near fuel systems and in enclosed marine spaces. Recyclability over 3 to 5 blast cycles also reduces waste disposal cost versus single-use abrasives.

Industrial fabrication workshops use waterjet cutting garnet for precision cutting of steel, aluminium and stone. Fabricators supplying components for NEOM, The Red Sea Project and Jeddah infrastructure projects require consistent garnet particle size to maintain cut quality and protect waterjet pump life.

Construction and contracting companies across Jeddah, Khobar and Riyadh use blasting grade garnet for surface preparation before protective coating on steel-frame buildings, bridges, water tanks and industrial structures.

We handle export documentation from Dubai. Saudi import customs clearance requires a local freight forwarder — we can recommend partners we regularly work with in Jeddah, Khobar and Riyadh.

Garnet Sand Price in Jeddah

Garnet sand pricing in Jeddah depends on four factors: grade (30/60, 20/40 or 80 mesh), quantity (pallet, half-container or full container), packaging format (25kg bags or jumbo bags) and current sea freight rates from Dubai to Jeddah port.

We supply at wholesale pricing. Full container load orders (20ft or 40ft) attract significantly better per-tonne rates than pallet orders. For buyers running ongoing operations — monthly blasting or regular waterjet production — we can set up a scheduled supply arrangement with pre-agreed pricing that does not change with each order.

We do not publish fixed prices because freight rates and market pricing change regularly. The fastest route to an accurate Jeddah price is a direct enquiry — call or WhatsApp +971 56 158 9555 or use the
