Brunnings Perlite 25L - Professional High-Volume Aeration & Drainage Medium

Brunnings Perlite is a premium, lightweight volcanic mineral engineered to provide superior aeration and moisture management for large-scale professional and home gardening applications. This substantial 25L pack of perlite features highly porous granules that create essential air pockets within the root zone, effectively preventing soil compaction and ensuring that oxygen remains readily available to developing roots. Its unique physical structure allows it to hold moisture on the surface of each granule while facilitating excellent drainage, making it an indispensable tool for preventing root rot and waterlogging in large containers or garden beds. Being naturally sterile, chemically inert, and pH neutral, Brunnings Perlite provides a clean and stable environment that will not interfere with the delicate nutrient balance of your plants. Whether you are blending high-performance custom potting mixes for indoor collections, succulents, or professional propagation, this high-grade perlite ensures a free-draining and resilient growing medium that promotes vigorous root establishment and long-term plant health.

Best For: Enhancing soil porosity, preventing compaction, and improving drainage in large-scale potting mixes and professional propagation setups.

Important Note on Availability & Shipping

Our warehouse serves as our office and logistics centre rather than a retail showroom. Because we ship from multiple locations and manage high-turnover stock, not all items are available for immediate pickup.

Lead Times:

• In-Stock Items: Usually ready for dispatch the same day.
• Supplier-Dependent Items: Usually take 2–8 weeks to arrive, depending on supplier availability. Products from Adloheat may take 8–12 weeks to manufacture—they are made to order in Australia by a small business, and longer lead times reflect the care put into quality.

While we strive for fast delivery, some timelines are subject to supplier availability and are beyond our control. We appreciate your patience as we source the best quality gear for your project.

Biosecurity & Interstate Shipping Restrictions

Due to strict state biosecurity regulations, we are unable to ship some products to certain states and territories:

• Potting Mixes cannot be shipped to Western Australia (WA), the Northern Territory (NT), or Tasmania (TAS).
• Seeds cannot be shipped to Western Australia (WA).

Orders placed for these items to restricted states will be cancelled and refunded. It is the customer's responsibility to ensure that the items being ordered can lawfully be delivered to their state or territory.
