Expanded-perlite grow mats

A ready-to-use substrate block for high-tech hydroponics: it retains part of the nutrient solution while preserving air around the roots.

The mat provides form. Perlite provides the growing medium.

Inside the cover is a lightweight expanded mineral with open and closed pores. Water is held on particle surfaces, while the spaces between them maintain root-zone gas exchange.

Two views of one system: a ready format for the greenhouse channel and the root environment working through the crop cycle.

Moisture stays close. Air remains.

Porous particles retain part of the solution after irrigation. Air channels remain between the granules, preventing the root zone from becoming a uniformly saturated mass.

The configuration is aligned with the greenhouse system: crop, channels, drainage and nutrition strategy.

Five practical properties

  • The mat sits neatly in a greenhouse channel and remains contained.

White agricultural perlite as a standalone loose growing medium

Agricultural perlite

Coarse-grade expanded perlite is supplied as a standalone mineral growing medium. It is used in hydroponics, propagation systems and custom blends when the grower wants to define the volume, form and recipe of the root environment.

  • 01Moisture without compaction
  • 02Air spaces between granules
  • 03Standalone or blended use

Agricultural perlite is a standalone mineral substrate; particle grade and application method are selected for the crop and growing system.

Perlite filter aid with a laboratory filtration system

Perlite filter aid

Specially prepared fine-grade expanded perlite is used as an auxiliary filtration material. It helps form a permeable layer for clarifying process liquids.

  • 01Permeable mineral layer
  • 02High particle surface area
  • 03Grade selected for the process

This is a separate product category: particle grade and operating parameters are selected for the customer’s liquid and equipment.
