At Nextera Insulations, we deal in innovative thermal and acoustic products geared to perform under the requirements of the contemporary industries. Our Perlite Insulation is a high-performance, asbestos-free product suitable for both industrial and construction settings. Made from expanded perlite, this light insulation boasts superior thermal conductivity, non-flammability, and resistance to water, rendering it an industry favorite when it comes to dependable energy efficiency and sound insulation.

What is Nextera’s Perlite Insulation?

Nextera’s Perlite Insulation is an asbestos-free, high-intensity, high-tech waterproof heat insulation material. It consists primarily of high-quality perlite particles with the unique characteristic of expanding significantly upon heating to a certain degree, producing a low-density, highly insulating product. The expanded perlite is then mixed with inorganic bonding compounds and reinforcing fibers and made into a strong and resilient insulation product.

Key Features of Perlite Insulation

• Good Thermal Conductivity: With its low density, perlite insulation is a good thermal regulator with high energy minimization performance and temperature stability. It can function efficiently at service temperatures of up to 650°C (1202°F) with a very low coefficient of heat conductivity (e.g., 0.076 W/mK at 250 Kg/m³ density).
• Higher Water Resistance: Nextera perlite insulation has a unique chemistry which is highly water-resistant, sustaining its insulating property even during damp or wet conditions and preventing the likelihood of material degradation.
• Anti-Corrosive & Waterproofing Properties: Its natural characteristic protects underlying structure from corrosion and provides waterproof lining.
• Non-Combustibility: Perlite insulation has a non-combustible nature by itself, and it also makes any application fireproof.
• Superb Sound Reduction Effect: Apart from thermal effectiveness, our perlite insulation also includes superior noise-reducing characteristics, silencing rooms and making them more convenient.
• Lightweight & Easy Installation: Low density allows easy transit, cutting, and installation, thus reducing construction time and labor expense.
• Environmentally Friendly: Being extracted from a natural volcanic mineral, perlite is a renewable and plentiful resource.
• Long Lasting & Resilient: Durable in nature, it is a cost-effective solution for long-term insulation.
