What is Perlite?

Perlite is a naturally occurring volcanic glass that is mined and processed for use in a variety of applications, including construction, horticulture, and industrial processing. It is formed when obsidian, a type of volcanic glass, is subjected to high heat and pressure. When it is heated to a high temperature, the water trapped within the glass expands, causing the glass to puff up and become porous. This process is called expansion. Perlite has a number of properties that make it useful in various applications. It is lightweight, has a high insulation value, and is able to retain moisture while also allowing excess water to drain away. In construction, it is often used as a lightweight aggregate in concrete, plaster, and insulation materials.
