About Perlite
Perlite is a naturally occurring volcanic glass formed when obsidian — a type of volcanic rock — is hydrated over geological time. When mined perlite ore is rapidly heated to around 870–1093 °C, the water trapped inside vaporises and causes the material to expand up to twenty times its original volume. The resulting lightweight, white granules are chemically inert, non-combustible, and exhibit outstanding thermal and acoustic insulation properties.
We source perlite ore from certified deposits in Turkey, Greece, and the Caucasus region. Our procurement team conducts independent quality audits of every deposit to verify mineral purity and consistent expansion ratios before supplier approval. This traceability from mine to finished product is part of our ISO 9001:2015 quality management system.
Products & Applications
Our product range spans thermal and acoustic insulation plasters (GypsoPerlit, ThermoWall), warm floor screeds (ThermoScreed), lightweight concrete aggregates, ecological paints and protective coatings (Perlite Paints range), horticultural growing media, and industrial filtration aids. For a full technical specification sheet please contact our sales team.
Our single-coat GypsoPerlit plaster delivers thermal resistance comparable to 80 mm of mineral wool at only 30 mm of applied thickness. Unlike EPS (expanded polystyrene), perlite-based plasters are non-combustible (Class A1 fire resistance), vapour-permeable, and free of organic compounds. Installation is up to 60% faster because a single layer replaces a traditional four-layer insulation system.
Working With Us
Yes. We supply dry-mix products in 25 kg bags, big-bags (500–1000 kg), and bulk tanker deliveries for very large volumes. Minimum order quantities and delivery lead times vary by product and destination country. Please fill in our contact form or call our logistics team for a bespoke quotation.
We do. Our application engineers can attend project sites in the UAE, Russia, and Kazakhstan to supervise first application, train crews, conduct quality checks at key milestones, and issue application certificates to satisfy contractor and owner requirements. This service is included in major supply contracts and available separately for smaller projects.
Sustainability
Perlite is an abundant mineral with minimal environmental impact at extraction. It requires no chemical additives in its base expanded form and is 100% inorganic, meaning it will not decompose, off-gas, or harbour mould. Buildings insulated with our products demonstrate measured reductions in heating and cooling energy consumption of between 30% and 45%, directly reducing lifetime carbon emissions.
