HORTICULTURE GRADE PERLITE

Perlite is an alumino-silicate of volcanic origin, which when crushed and heated rapidly expands to form a white lightweight stable aggregate, possessing a closed cellular structure. Water is retained only on the aggregate surface and in pore spaces between aggregates - the result is a well-drained lightweight media, easy to handle and transport. The aggregates have good structural integrity and do not break down when utilized as a propagating media or in planting mixes, developing a near-ideal structural condition in growing and propagating media. Typical Technical Analysis:
  • SiO2: 75.98%
  • AIO3: 13.99%
  • Na2: 38%
  • K2O: 02.64%
  • CaO: 01.20%
  • Fe2O3: 01.02%
  • MgO: 00.20%
