One mighty mineral. Endless possibilities.

Absorption

The fine grades of expanded perlite are especially useful in solidifying sludges because they can absorb a high percentage of liquid while adding minimal additional weight. This unique ability of efficiently absorbing liquids has proven Silbrico Perlite to be a cost-effective solution for many types of cleanups.


Uses

Environmental restoration

Residential cleanup

Industrial remediation

Particle sizes range from approximately
1 to 3,350 microns

This ultra-fine perlite is similar in size to microsphere perlite but is made by milling and classifying expanded perlite under our stringent quality-controlled conditions to create particles with jagged interlocking structures. Of course, with our Silbrico standards, consistency is always guaranteed. Our product line for this grade of perlite is Sil-Kleer.

At Silbrico, we refer to these industrial perlite grades as macroparticles. Coarser grades are clusters of glass bubbles containing a multi-cellular core, offering many industrial benefits like being lightweight and insulating. We apply non-flammable water repellent treatment to certain grades, which significantly improves the water repellent properties of perlite. Ryolex is our line of macroparticles.
