Since 2006 AEGEAN PERLITES SA has decided to extend its activities by installing a perlite expansion and packaging unit. Expanded perlite, which is for the most part distributed in the domestic market, is mainly used in the construction sector as a natural material with excellent thermal and sound isolative properties.
Thanks to its very light weight (approx. 80 gr/lt) and its incombustible attribute, expanded perlite is used in a wide range of applications and is a commonplace in our times.
In general terms, expanded perlite is righteously described as a ‘’future material’’ since its physical properties offer great potential and it can be used in a variety of new applications related to the protection of the environment and to the saving of the, very valuable today, energy.
