4-8mm, 8-16mm Hydroponics LECA Expanded Clay Pebbles
Expanded Clay (Also named Hydro Clay balls, leca, Light Weight Expanded Clay Aggregate, Red Clay Balls) is made from 100% natural clay at average 1200 degree in rotary kiln,
the Yielding gases are expanded by thousands of small bubbles as long as this temperature and porosity will appear by many voids and honeycombs
at these round shape aggregates when melted materials become cold.

- Used in soil, hydroponics, and aquaponics
- Reusable, Hig porous, Retais more water and moisture
- Many different sizes of expanded clay can be offered
- Many different packing method can be offerend
Density of Expanded Clay:
- Expanded Clay 1-4mm/2-4mm: 500~650KGS/CBM
- Expanded Clay 3-9mm/4-8mm: 360~400KGS/CBM
- Expanded Clay 8-10mm: 320~350KGS/CBM
- Expanded Clay 8-16mm: 300~320KGS/CBM
- Expanded Clay 10-30mm: 230~260KGS/CBM

Other Application:
Hydroponics Aquaponics | Expanded Clay is chemically neutral and ensures air penetration to plant roots. At the same time, fungal spores, bacteria and insect pests are avoided. |
Insulation | Expanded Clay is used for making solid blocks and hollow blocks of lightweight concrete. |
Light Fill | LECA lightweight concrete can be used for filling purpose and in areas where form stability is also essential. |
Roof Gardens | Bulk Expanded Clay particle can be used in roof gardens for drainage purposes and for constructing and eliminating slopes. |
Structural Concrete | Expanded Clay Balls as the aggregate, structural concrete can be fabricate in strengths of up 45Mpa and the density is less than 1950kg/M3. |
Cleaning Filter | Expanded Clay can be used for water treatment, Bio-filter Media in sewage disposal |
