Vermiculite is a naturally occurring mineral that expands when heated, creating a lightweight, fire-resistant material. It is a type of hydrous phyllosilicate mineral that has a distinctive accordion-like appearance. Vermiculite is commonly used in construction for insulation, as a soil conditioner in gardening, and in fireproofing applications. Its ability to absorb water and retain nutrients also makes it popular in horticulture for improving soil aeration and moisture retention.
Vermiculite is a natural mineral known for its exceptional heat and fire resistance.
Raw vermiculite is a lightweight, absorbent material that expands when heated.
Vermiculite possesses excellent insulation properties, making it ideal for construction and horticulture.
Raw vermiculite is often used as a soil conditioner, enhancing water retention and aeration.
Vermiculite's unique exfoliation property allows it to be used in various industries, including agriculture, construction, and insulation.

Global Minechem Corporation provides Vermiculite in India. Vermiculite is a term functional commercially to micaceous minerals which are alteration products of biotite or phlogopite micas, produced by the removal of alkalies and addition of water. Vermiculite differs from mica in its attribute property.
The crude vermiculite is predominantly exfoliated before utilization. For converting raw vermiculite into a product fitting for industrial use, it must be exfoliated or lengthened by heating, a procedure also called as ‘exfoliation’.
