Where the sand comes from
The Bystrze-Konczewice pit is in the Miloradz municipality, Pomeranian Voivodeship, northern Poland. The deposit is in the Vistula riverbed, next to the national road DK22 bridge between Malbork and Tczew.
Extraction runs under a water permit from Polish Waters (Wody Polskie), valid until 30 January 2030. Under the permit, dredging takes place from April to October.
Routes to the buyer
- Road: DK22 connects to the A1 motorway and the S7 expressway, both leading to Gdansk
- Sea: 55 km to the Coal Quay (Nabrzeze Weglowe) in the Port of Gdansk, then bulk shipment to Scandinavia and the Baltic states
- River: barge loading at the pit is possible, subject to water levels; low water in summer and ice in winter can stop navigation
Volumes
We currently extract about 1,000 tonnes every 3 hours. Production capacity is about 2 million tonnes a year. That supports a single vessel load or an annual contract of hundreds of thousands of tonnes.
For export contracts we agree a loading schedule in advance, so the sand has time to drain on the stockpile before it goes to the port.
Price and terms
The base price is from PLN 27 per tonne net, loaded onto trucks at the pit. For export we quote in EUR. Delivery terms, port handling, freight and payment are agreed individually for each contract.

The Declaration of Performance is available in English and Polish, with CE marking to EN 12620 under AVCP System 4. The initial type testing report and the water permit are in Polish. CE marking under the Construction Products Regulation is recognised across the EU and the EEA.
Questions and answers
Can you deliver FOB Gdansk?
Delivery terms are agreed individually. Tell us your preferred terms and destination and we will quote.
Do you ship in winter?
Dredging runs from April to October under the permit. Winter shipments depend on stock on the yard, so plan them with us in advance.
