We are an Australian owned and operated sand quarry located around 120 kilometres east of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia in the district of Gippsland only 10 minutes from Warragul. Warragul is one of the state’s leading rural growth centres with great employment opportunities. Many locals commute to Melbourne daily with good public transport available. The snow fields of Mount Baw Baw are just ov

er an hour away and the coast about the same distance. The area is renowned for its undulating beauty and rich natural resources. We employ ALL local labour and support local charities such as Riding For The Disabled and various sporting groups. We are key sponsors of the Warragul Rodeo each year and we encourage and support local talent such as Jacob Wells, an up and coming world class equestrian. Entering our 8th year, Gippsland Premium Quarries has continued to produce a quality product range including horse arena sand, known as “SUREGRIP”, which has become a very popular product with many different equine disciplines. We provide many other sand types such as road sand, packing sand, pea gravel and other more specialised sands. Gippsland Premium Quarries can assess your sand requirements and deliver a product to your specification. This area is also famous for some very high yield beef cattle such as Blonde d’Aquitaine (see products tab for more information)

Gippsland Premium Quarries has experienced significant growth over the past seven years and is continuing to grow mainly because we believe in listening to customer feed-back and our ability to meld to industry/customer requirements. At Gippsland Premium Quarries we offer a wide range of services, such as:

Proud to support the events that keep country and community traditions alive 🤠🐎

We were thrilled to sponsor the Trafalgar Campdraft, supplying our Menage Sand products to help create a safe, consistent surface for horse and rider. Seeing it put to work in the arena is what it’s all about.

At Gippsland Premium Quarries, we believe backing local and rural events matters just as much as supplying quality product. From campdrafts to private arenas, our Menage Sand is trusted by locals who know the importance of good footing.

Supporting the community. Supplying the best.
That’s how we do it in Gippsland.

Please call Andy on 0447 411 162 for any enquiries.
