Horticultural Perlite (2-6 mm) Perlite is used extensively worldwide for elevated/structural landscaping to reduce the weight. Perlite provides aeration, water retention and prevents soil compaction. Due to its Inorganic nature, it does not decay or decompose (similar to sand) and remains in the soil for a minimum period of 20-30 years.
Hydroturf Perlite (1-2 mm) is superior in results and extremely cost effective versus other imported water saving soil additives, with double proven efficiency ( 800% WHC due its porous surface area ) and permanent durability (One-time application, will not decay or decompose as the composition of Perlite is of volcanic nature) which will guarantee 50% water irrigation reduction.
Back-Fill Perlite is an ideal void former beneath soil to reduce overall structural load and promote root growth over time, the application is straight-forward, our Back-Fill Perlite bags are installed in loose form and the soil is applied on-top. Our Back-Fill Perlite solution is cost effective versus Polystyrene and other void formers and also promotes plantation growth and does not decompose over time (Polystyrene is known to decay over time and adversely affect plant growth).
