bullet

Light weight - Aerolite aggregate and fines products are less than half the weight of equivalent aggregate products . Our products are ideal for use in the manufacture of any lightweight concrete or masonry products.

bullet

Vesicular structure- Due to its naturally aerated nature, it has many benefits over conventional aggregates:
Water retention
: it naturally absorbs and holds water and can be used to naturally drought proof gardens when used as a mulch or soil additive,  is also an ideal growing medium for use in soils, hydroponics mixes, growing and potting mixes. It also is an idea filter material
Noise and Thermal Insulator:
Due to aerated structure it is far superior than normal dense sands and aggregates in providing both thermal and noise insulation
Refractory Properties: Due to its structure and chemical composition it is an ideal material to improve the fire resistant properties of concrete or masonry products.

bullet

Strong and Durable: Unlike some other scoria products, Aerolite's products do not break down or powder over time but are as strong and durable as any other normal sand or aggregate product.
