Sinclair Perlite Standard is horticultural medium grade perlite for compost mixes to improve drainage and increase insulation. Tropical plants and bonsai thrive in loose free drainage soils.

Perlite standard has a neutral pH (6.5-7.5). Perlite is known for its excellent insulation characteristics, it also retains and conducts water and does not lock up nutrients.

Perlite has shown to be extremely efficient in providing an increase in aeration as a consequence of its high air filled pore space. It holds less water than peat so the addition of Perlite Standard produces a well drained environment for root growth. It is also outstandingly efficient in stabilising temperatures.

Perlite Standard should be used at 10-20% by volume.
