The blending of the uniquely crimped Loksand fibers with sand to form the perfect bunker edge has created a higher standard in bunker construction that has led to more dramatic bunkers with reduced maintenance. Loksand creates a hard, clean edge, a sharp, clean line between turf and sand. The perfect edge now is a barrier to erosion and stops contaminated sand from moving into the bunker. The edge of a bunker is what defines the outline, the edge where green turf meets white sand and highlights the character. The drama of the golf hole is easily seen when looking at a green or fairway. It creates the perfect edge for every style of bunker: rolled over steep edges, high vertical faces and low-profile styles.
Loksand holds steep bunker slopes in place and provides a ready-made biomass for turf to thrive in. It resists tearing and damage to turf by machinery and foot traffic. Maintenance is significantly reduced, together with the damage caused by trimming equipment.
Loksand can be blended with on-site native sands at no cost to create a firm, hard edge that will not collapse, provides a defining line between the bunker sand and native sand, and provides a low-cost barrier to expensive sand contamination. Loksand provides a natural look that defines the edge of a bunker in a very dramatic way, is easy to maintain, and is long-lasting. The original sand lines and bunker shapes, carefully defined by the architect, will no longer be lost to maintenance practices.
Loksand provides a comprehensive solution for controlling areas subject to erosion. Construction of a golf course typically has large open areas under construction. Lake surrounds, exposed loose soil, bunkers under construction, temporary roadways and slopes where water gathers speed and causes unwanted damage at serious financial cost. Loksand provides peace of mind to contractors, owners and superintendents by protecting expensive work completed and reduces or eliminates costs to repair throughout construction.
Loksand binds sand particles together. In the spectrum between sand and fine soils, Loksand is the solution to design, build and bring your creative ideas to life. Structure gives architects the creative license to design more dramatic slopes and shapes in the landscape that will function for years to come. Whether it’s near-vertical bunker edges, wild, dramatic landforms or natural retaining walls– you dream it, and Loksand will stabilize it.
Improving the quality of turf is an ongoing pursuit of landscapers, turfgrass managers, and sports field managers. Loksand will assist in the elimination of poor-quality turf caused by concentration of traffic, poor drainage, lack of oxygen in anaerobic soils, and steep slopes.
Loksand is resilient. It brings much-needed relief to areas constantly under pressure from people walking up the slopes of bunkers as well as vehicles compacting, collapsing, and tearing up a turf area or a turfed car park – any areas of turf subjected to extraordinary stress.
Turfgrass at concentrated car path entry and exit to fairways; machine turns and walkways – all the “hot spots” you are familiar with – will be dramatically improved by blending Loksand to increase drainage and oxygen availability in the soil that is critical for quality turf. The fibers also provide an instant biomass for the turf to grow quickly, stabilize and thrive in the long-term.
Loksand is a product that can be used as a cart path, within exposed sand, or covered with turf. It provides a natural, firm surface that drains well – ideal for those looking to avoid hardscape surfaces. Loksand shines in a temporary construction road that will keep traffic moving with the stability that’s needed for large vehicles.
Bring structure, stability and long-term performance to your next project with Loksand. From bunker edges and steep slopes to erosion control, drainage and high-traffic areas, Loksand provides a practical solution to improve soil strength and turf performance.
By binding loose sands and maintaining airflow and drainage within the profile, it helps reduce ongoing maintenance while supporting long-lasting results. Whether you are working on a golf course, landscape or large-scale project, Loksand offers a reliable approach to many common challenges.
