Perlite For Agricultural Use ( per bucket 20ltrs)

Agricultural Perlite is a lightweight, porous growing medium designed to improve soil structure, drainage and root development in a wide range of agricultural and horticultural applications. It is produced from naturally occurring volcanic material that expands when heated, creating a clean, highly aerated material with excellent water and air-holding properties.

Perlite helps prevent soil compaction by creating air spaces around plant roots, allowing better oxygen circulation and faster root establishment. It also improves drainage while retaining a useful amount of moisture, making it especially valuable in potting mixes, propagation media and hydroponic growing systems.

Key Features

• Lightweight and easy to mix with other growing media
• Improves soil aeration and drainage
• Helps reduce soil compaction
• Supports strong and healthy root development
• Holds moisture without becoming waterlogged
• Clean, stable and long-lasting growing medium
• Suitable for both soil-based and soilless growing systems

Why Choose Perlite?

Perlite creates a better balance between air, water and growing medium, helping roots access oxygen while reducing the risk of excessive moisture around the root zone. It is particularly useful when working with heavy soils, coco peat or other materials that may retain too much water.

Where to Use Perlite

Perlite is ideal for seedling propagation, nursery production, potting mixes, vegetable farming, greenhouse growing, hydroponics, indoor plants, outdoor potted plants, succulents and rooting cuttings. It can be mixed with coco peat, compost, vermiculite or soil depending on the crop and growing requirements.
