Flakes of raw vermiculite concentrate are micaceous in appearance and contain interlayer water in their structure. When the flakes are heated rapidly at a temperature above 870° C, the water flashes into steam, and the flakes expand into accordion like particles. This process is called exfoliation, or expansion, and the resulting lightweight material is chemically inert, fire resistant, and odorless. In lightweight plaster and concrete

 vermiculite provides good thermal insulation. Vermiculite can absorb such liquids as fertilizers, herbicides, and insecticides, which can then be transported as free-flowing solids.

Vermiculite provides highest quality agricultural vermiculite specially meant for agriculture purposes and it has the excellent properties to be essential component for seedling, planting, germination and cutting.

Vermiculite has a high cation exchange capacity which facilitates the uptake of nutrients in plants, one of the reasons it's used in potting mixes.
It loosens the soil so that the roots can easily reach down and grow through the soil.

The small, round white particles of exfoliated vermiculite do not absorb water, each little bead creates a tiny pocket among the granules of soil. Water can easily flow through the soil and the roots. It is great for clay soils and helps to improve drainage in any area.
Unlike compost (decayed organic matter), eventually breaks down into the soil, vermiculite does not break down. Compost does add vital nutrients, but if you need to improve drainage permanently then vermiculite is a great solution.

Vermiculite is a pH neutral, which is around 7.0 or so, but because of some compounds found within it, it can slightly raise pH, a plus for acidic soils.

Exfoliated vermiculite naturally reacts with soil compounds and makes the availability of other nutrients such as calcium, potassium and magnesium.
