Testing and Remediation Post Kinetic Sand Exposure

If you’re concerned that play sand in your home, school or workplace may be contaminated, the safest step you can take is to have it tested and assessed by a licensed team.

Asbestos fibres are invisible to the eye and impossible to confirm without laboratory analysis, so prompt professional testing is essential.

Dingo Services provides rapid site attendance, sample collection, NATA-accredited testing and full remediation for affected indoor and outdoor areas.

Why Remove Asbestos Sand?

Children’s play sands and decorative sands (often referred to as kinetic sand, crazy sand, kids play sand, decorative sand, or asbestos sand) have been found in recent investigations to contain asbestos fibres. These kinetic sands have been used in schools, day-care centres, homes and sensory play settings and when contaminated, can expose children, staff and families to serious health risks.

Disturbing suspect sand by pouring, brushing, mixing or removing it can release invisible fibres into the air. If those fibres are inhaled or ingested, long-term health consequences may result. Safe removal and remediation are essential.

Signs You Need Removal of Crazy Sand

You have unopened or partly used tubs of kinetic or decorative sand

If the sand is still in its original packaging, place it in a heavy-duty plastic bag, tape it securely, label it clearly, and store it in a secure location until it can be disposed of at an approved facility.

You have loose sand in trays, tubs or sensory play areas

- Clean up carefully using damp cloths, not dry sweeping.
- Wear gloves and a P2 or N95 mask.
- Double bag the sand, used gloves, mask and cloths before disposal to prevent dust release.

The sand has been used over a long period or spread over a wide area

Sand that has been tipped into gardens, backyards, sandpits or outdoor play areas can be harder to control and may need professional remediation.

The product has been used in schools, day care centres or high-use public settings

In these environments, a formal assessment and documented removal process is usually the safest option.

You are unsure how far the sand has spread or whether other materials are affected

In all complex or large-area situations, contact our team for a consultation and site assessment. We can advise whether targeted removal, full remediation or air monitoring is required.

FAQ

anything

If the sand is still in its original packaging, place it in a heavy-duty plastic bag, seal and double-tape it, clearly label it, and store it securely until it can be disposed of properly.

If it has been played with, carefully clean the area using wet cloths (not dry sweeping or vacuuming), wear gloves and a P2/N95 mask, and double-bag all waste materials.

For broader contamination or long-term use areas, book a professional assessment. This process is outlined in our article Where to Dispose of Asbestos Sand in Western Australia.

Asbestos waste must only be taken to licensed disposal facilities. Many councils require appointments, permits, or packaging standards before accepting asbestos materials.

We’ve compiled a full, region-by-region list of approved sites in WA, including contact numbers and links, here:

Asbestos fibres are microscopic and cannot be identified by sight.

Contaminated play sand often looks completely normal. The only reliable method is laboratory testing conducted by trained professionals.

We cover this in more detail in our article Asbestos Contaminated Children’s Play Sand and follow guidance from WA Health and WorkSafe WA.

If you suspect an issue, avoid disturbing the sand and contact our team for safe sample collection.

Yes however it is stable in a moist format. Once dry however digging, pouring or brushing, can cause asbestos fibres to become airborne and pose long-term health risks when inhaled. Even small quantities can be harmful, and there is no known safe level of exposure.
