PERLITE & VERMICULITE
Where Healthy
Growth Begins
Horticulture professionals rely on growing media that support consistent plant development.
Perlite and vermiculite are widely used across propagation, greenhouse production, and blended growing media to help manage root-zone conditions. Depending on the application, they may be used independently or combined to support different growing needs throughout the plant life cycle.

PERLITE
Perlite is a naturally occurring volcanic glass that expands when heated, forming a lightweight, porous material ideal for horticulture.
It's widely used in potting mixes, seed starting, propagation, soil conditioning, hydroponics, and other specialty growing systems. Its structure improves drainage, boosts oxygen flow, and helps prevent soil compaction and overwatering — creating the perfect environment for strong, healthy root development and reliable plant performance.

WHY GROWERS CHOOSE PERLITE
Perlite creates tiny air pockets in the soil, allowing excess water to drain away quickly while oxygen circulates freely around plant roots — essential for healthy growth.
Lightweight and rigid, perlite helps keep soil loose and well-structured. This prevents it from becoming hard or compacted, especially after watering.
With improved soil structure and consistent moisture levels, roots can grow deeper and spread more easily leading to healthier, more resilient plants.
Perlite’s excellent drainage keeps water from pooling around roots, reducing the chances of fungal diseases like root rot — a common problem in overwatered soil.
Perlite creates tiny air pockets in the soil, allowing excess water to drain away quickly while oxygen circulates freely around plant roots — essential for healthy growth.
Vermiculite is a natural mineral that expands into soft, absorbent flakes when heated, making it a valuable material in horticulture.
It’s commonly used in seed starting, potting mixes, propagation, soil amendments, and even bulb and tuber storage. Its ability to retain moisture and nutrients while preventing compaction makes it ideal for promoting fast, even germination, supporting cuttings, and improving soil structure. Vermiculite helps regulate water availability across a range of growing conditions — from stabilizing sandy soils to protecting stored bulbs from rot — making it a versatile choice for consistent plant performance.

WHY GROWERS CHOOSE VERMICULITE
Absorbs water like a sponge, then slowly releases it to roots ensuring plants stay hydrated without becoming waterlogged.
Blends easily into soil to increase air space and keep growing media light and open, preventing compaction over time
Provides a gentle, stable environment where roots can grow freely and access consistent moisture and nutrients.
Helps retain essential nutrients in the root zone, reducing leaching and keeping fertilizers available to plants longer.
By holding moisture efficiently, vermiculite reduces the need for frequent watering, especially useful in dry or hot conditions.
