Perlite

Perlite is an inorganic volcanic rock that when heated expands into porous and light perlite grains, a natural material that has various applications in agriculture, horticulture, construction and other industries due to its unique properties.

The purity and chemical neutrality of expanded perlite is largely determined by the quality of raw perlite processing. Due to the high quality of processing and the process accuracy of our expansion plants, NESTAAN offers pure perlite.

Applications

From the construction industry and building chemistry to the petrochemical industry, horticultural applications and the food and cosmetics industries, the versatility of expanded perlite means it has a variety of applications in different fields:

Fire resistant materials

The lightweight and insulating nature of perlite makes it suitable for use in fire-resistant materials.

Horticulture

In horticulture, perlite is used as a physical soil conditioner and as a component of potting soils. It improves soil aeration, promotes drainage and helps retain moisture, which is beneficial for plant and crop growth.

Construction

Perlite is added to building materials such as concrete and plaster to make it lighter and more insulating at the same time. It is often used to insulate walls, floors and roofs.

Filtration

Perlite is used as a filtration medium in various industries to remove impurities. Due to its filtering properties, perlite is used in some cases in water treatment processes.
