1.Horticulture
• Clean and sterile - no diseases introduced, no sterilisation necessary
• Lightweight and easy to handle
• Does not deteriorate - lasts indefinitely, value for money
• Does not compact thereby providing good aeration and drainage - ideal for long lasting plants
• Due capillary lift it keeps supplying water and nutrients to other plants when a reservoir is used. This reduces management as plants don't have to be watered as often.
• Prevents drying out as Perlite absorbs up to 5 times its own weight of water. A built-in safety factor
• Provides good insulation to protect roots from extreme temperature fluctuations thereby minimising plant stress.

2.Industrial
Industrial applications for Perlite are the most diverse, ranging from high performance fillers for plastics to cements for petroleum, water and geothermal wells. Other applications include its use as a filter media for pharmaceuticals, food products, chemicals and water for municipal systems in swimming pools.
Additional applications include its use as an abrasive in soaps, cleaners and polishers and a variety of foundry applications utilizing Perlites insulating properties and high heat resistance. This same heat resistant property is taken advantage of when Perlite is used in the manufacture of refractory bricks, mortars and pipe insulation.

3.Filter aid
Perlite has long been used as a filtering aid in the food processing and pharmaceutical industries. Over the past 10 years it has been found to be an extremely effective and safe material for use in the swimming pool industry. It is used world wide and designed for varied applications. The perlite filter powder has been specifically designed for D.E. type filter systems. Our careful processing ensures a high quality product that produces sparking clean pool water.
• Superior Water Clarity
• Longer Cycles Between Backwashes
• Easier Release From Filter Screens
• A Safe Alternative To Diatomaceous Earth (D.E.)
• More Powder Per Kilogram

4. Construction
In conclusion, Chillagoe Perlite provides a sterile and easy to manage substrate for any crop. It is very light weight, so easy and quick to setup, saving labour. Capital expenditure is low, as Perlite can be used on sloping or undulating sites. Irrigation timing is less critical than many systems, and, because it is completely inert, slat build up is never a problem.
