Perlite, also known as pearl stone, is a naturally occurring siliceous rock that is produced by rapid cooling of liquid lava. It contains high silica proportionandis usually found in various colors, such as green, gray, brown, blue, and red. Perlite is a stable amorphous aluminum silicatepossessing several properties, such as high heat resistance, low bulk density,low sound transmission, high surface area, and low thermal conductivity.It also contains chemicals, such as oxides of calcium, magnesium, iron, and potassium. Perlite, mostly found in volcanic regions, is extracted and manufactured through open pit methods, such as blasting and ripping.
Increased utilization of perlite in construction segments owing to its beneficial properties such as low combustion rate and reduced noise transmission is expected to boost the growth of the global perlite market.Perlite is widely used in agriculture to overcome the rapid growth of anaerobic bacteria. It is usedto hold air or oxygen due to its coarse texture that will positively influence the segment growth in agriculture.In addition, application of perlitein horticulture as soil amendmentwith improved output is expected to drive the market demand in the upcoming period. However, presence of air pores in the perlite can capture algae and debris, leading to blocked percolation and availability of substitute products, such as diatomite, and pumice. This is expected to restrain the market growth. Nonetheless, increase in utilization of perlite in eco-roofs and water filtration are anticipated to provide opportunities in the upcoming period.
The perlite market is segmented into type, application, enduser, and region. By type, the market is divided into crude perlite, expanded perlite, crushed Perlite, vapex perlite, and others. By application, the market is categorized intoplaster, mortar, ceiling tiles, concrete,and others. Perlite is largely used as a replacement for gravels or stones in fire resistance walls owing to its slow combustion property. By enduser, the market is classified into horticulture, agriculture, construction, personal care,and others. Perlite is widely used in horticulture as it offers excellent water retention property.By region, the market is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA (Latin America, Middle East, and Africa).
Some of the key players operating in the global perlite marketinclude Imerys Minerals, Keltech Energies, Dupre Minerals, Bergama Mining, Gulf Perlite LLC, Carolina Perlite Company, Cornerstone Industries Ltd., Perlite-Hellas Ltd., Genper Group, Australian Perlite Limited, and Others.
