What's in your well?
Many households in the United States get their drinking water from in-ground private wells where layers of rock and soil naturally filter out most but not all potential contaminants. R.W. Sidley manufactures well pack gravels that can be used alone or with screens to effectively settle out fine-grained particles, allowing wells to produce cleaner water.
Made from silica quartz sand, our well pack gravels feature a sub-angular shape and are processed in uniform grain sizes for improved hydraulic conductivity. They are available in a range of effective sizes and packaging options to suit your requirements.
