Beodom chose expanded perlite, produced in Serbia by Termika, for facade and construction thermo-insulating mortar.

Perlite is a naturally occurring volcanic glass. It is used a lot in construction because of its property to expand when heated over 900°C. Raw perlite contains 2 to 5% of crystal water. When exposed to temperature of 1000°C, water vaporises and perlite expands in volume 20-40 times.

Expanded perlite

Expanded perlite (source Wikipedia)

Expanded perlite is lighweight (30–150 kg/m³), has a porous structure and is white in color. It is ecologically pure, micro sterile, and chemically non-active.

Expanded perlite has excellent thermal insulation properties and is incombustible. It can be used directly as a filling, or as a base to make mortar and lightweight concrete.
