High Quality Expanded Horticulture Perlite Price for Construction

Product Description

Product Description

1. 1)Horticultural Perlite:

Horticultural Perlite is a naturally occurring volcanic rock. When heated at high temperatures, the perlite sand "pops up" and expands 7 to 15 times its original volume. The resulting lightweight particles are composed of microscopic spheres with a porous fracture surface that promotes plant growth. This allows ventilation and drainage of the root system and provides water and nutrient retention.
 

  2)High quality fireproof perlite waterproof perlite insulation perlite

Perlite is a non-toxic, tasteless, non combustible, non-corrosive, acid and alkali resistant, thermal insulation, sound insulation and heat insulation product with honeycomb structure inside. Perlite is a white or light colored high-quality thermal insulation material made of acid volcanic glassy lava (perlite) after crushing and screening to a certain particle size, preheating and delayed sintering at a high temperature above 1400 ºC. Perlite can be prepared with different cements, such as hydrophobic perlite insulation board, perlite sound-absorbing board, partition board, fire board, etc.

Detailed Photos

 

• Light weight Expanded Perlite does not crush fine stems or root systems, making it ideal for growing delicate plants such as lettuce.

• Coarse Horticultural Perlite provides aeration and drainage, yet retains and holds substantial amounts of water that it releases when needed.
 

 

• The water-holding ability of Expanded Perlite also increases the nutrient holding capacity when water-soluble fertilizers are used.
• Can be used by itself, mixed with topsoil or potting soil, or any other sterile media for drip or passive hydroponic systems.
