About Vermiculite Granules

Being a renowned organization of the market, we are engaged in offering Raw Vermiculite Granules. These granules are a type of natural mineral that is commonly used in construction and gardening applications. Vermiculite is a hydrated laminar magnesium-aluminum-iron silicate mineral that expands when heated, forming lightweight, absorbent granules. In construction applications, Raw Vermiculite Granules are utilized as a lightweight aggregate in concrete and plaster, as well as a thermal and acoustic insulation material. They are also used in fireproofing applications due to their ability to expand and form a non-combustible barrier.



Superior Insulation and Fireproofing

Vermiculite granules exhibit outstanding thermal insulation due to their low conductivity and non-flammable nature. This mineral compound is specifically processed for consistency in particle size and purity, making it ideal for fireproofing applications in construction, insulation panels, and other thermal barrier systems.


Agricultural and Horticultural Applications

In agriculture and horticulture, vermiculite improves soil aeration, moisture retention, and nutrient exchange. The granules' pH neutrality and high purity support healthier root growth and plant development. Expanded vermiculite is widely used in potting mixes, seed germination, soil amendment, and hydroponics due to its environmentally friendly profile.


Long Shelf Life and Easy Storage

With a negligible moisture content and indefinite shelf life under proper storage, vermiculite granules remain effective over extended periods. They should be stored in a cool, dry environment, away from direct moisture, ensuring consistent performance and integrity for various uses.

FAQ's of Vermiculite Granules:


Q: How should vermiculite granules be stored to maintain their quality?

A: Vermiculite granules should be kept in a cool, dry place and stored in sealed HDPE bags to prevent moisture ingress, preserving their indefinite shelf life and physical integrity.

Q: What are the primary uses for vermiculite granules in agriculture and horticulture?

A: Vermiculite granules are commonly used to improve soil aeration, retain water, facilitate nutrient exchange, and promote healthy root development in potting mixes, seed germination, and soil conditioners.

Q: When is expanded vermiculite preferred over other soil amendments?

A: Expanded vermiculite is preferred when you need to enhance moisture retention without changing soil pH, provide insulation, or require a lightweight, non-toxic medium for hydroponic or greenhouse applications.

Q: Where can these vermiculite granules be purchased?

A: You can obtain vermiculite granules from authorized manufacturers or suppliers in India, typically packaged in HDPE bags of 25 kg or customized sizes as per your requirements.

Q: What process is used to make expanded vermiculite granules?

A: Expanded vermiculite is produced by heating the raw silicate mineral (CAS No: 1318-00-9), causing it to exfoliate and expand into lightweight granules suitable for insulation and horticultural uses.

Q: Are vermiculite granules environmentally friendly and safe to handle?

A: Yes, vermiculite granules are non-toxic, chemically stable, and classified as environmentally friendly, making them safe for use in gardens, farms, and construction environments.

Q: What are the benefits of using vermiculite in fireproof insulation systems?

A: Vermiculite's non-flammable nature and excellent thermal insulation significantly reduce heat transfer, making it highly beneficial for fireproof insulation in buildings and industrial setups.
