20 Microns Limited is a leading manufacturer and supplier of expanded perlite and non-expanded (crude) perlite in India, delivering engineered mineral solutions for construction, agriculture, filtration, and industrial applications.
With advanced processing capabilities and strong raw material sourcing, we ensure consistent quality, controlled particle size distribution, and reliable bulk supply for domestic and international markets.
Our perlite solutions are designed to meet the growing demand for lightweight construction materials, sustainable agriculture inputs, and high-efficiency filtration media.
Perlite is a naturally occurring volcanic glass that expands when heated at high temperatures, forming a lightweight, porous material with excellent insulation and moisture retention properties.
Depending on processing, perlite is available in two forms:
Expanded Perlite – Lightweight, porous, and used in insulation, horticulture, and filtration
Non-Expanded Perlite – Raw ore used for industrial processing and customized applications
These unique properties make perlite a versatile material across multiple industries.
At 20 Microns, we offer a complete range of perlite products tailored to industrial requirements. Our ability to control expansion, density, and particle size ensures application-specific performance.
Expanded perlite is processed through controlled heating, resulting in a lightweight material with high porosity.
Key advantages:
Non-expanded perlite is supplied as high-quality raw ore for further industrial processing.
Key advantages:
In modern agriculture, horticultural perlite in India is widely used as a growing medium due to its ability to improve soil aeration and moisture control. It creates an ideal root environment by balancing air and water availability.
Perlite is especially valuable in hydroponics, greenhouse cultivation, and precision farming, where soil conditions must be carefully managed.
Key applications:
Benefits:
Perlite is widely used in the construction industry as a lightweight aggregate and insulation material. It helps reduce structural load while improving energy efficiency in buildings.
