Review: Very pleased with this perlite - Very pleased with this perlite good price and good quality my herbs are doing great with this in the mix. Not very dusty which is excellent. To keep the little bit of dust down I spray the perlite with a little water when mixing with the compost. Would definately buy again Review: Very good value - Good value: A nice big bag. If you haven't used perlite before be aware that it is naturally very dusty... I carefully put some into an empty bucket and wet it with water before mixing with compost. This damps it down so you don't get big clouds of dust when mixing. I use up to 50% with compost (depending on plant needs), it helps bulk out the compost so you do not need so much, but make sure you feed plants regularly after about a month to keep them looking healthy. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Brand | Swiftair | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Style | Traditional | | Unit count | 6500.0 gram | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Swiftair - **Style:** Traditional - **Unit count:** 6500.0 gram ## Images ![Swiftair Perlite 100L Bag for Horticultural and Organic Gardening 2-5mm Perlite - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71XPns1b7cL.jpg) ![Swiftair Perlite 100L Bag for Horticultural and Organic Gardening 2-5mm Perlite - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91QSgGAG7kL.jpg) ![Swiftair Perlite 100L Bag for Horticultural and Organic Gardening 2-5mm Perlite - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91BXLJqBBDL.jpg) ![Swiftair Perlite 100L Bag for Horticultural and Organic Gardening 2-5mm Perlite - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91nVFAqLNZL.jpg) ![Swiftair Perlite 100L Bag for Horticultural and Organic Gardening 2-5mm Perlite - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91hRunQZ9yL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very pleased with this perlite *by P***J on 1 June 2026* Very pleased with this perlite good price and good quality my herbs are doing great with this in the mix.

Personally I figure the finer dust can help with drainage and keep medium from clumping. ## Frequently Bought Together - Swiftair Perlite 100L Bag for Horticultural and Organic Gardening 2-5mm Perlite - 100L VERMICULITE HORTICULTURAL MEDIUM GRADE 2MM - 5MM PLANTING SOIL INSULATION - Westland Potting Grit, 20kg --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.nz/products/237859105-swiftair-perlite-100l-bag-for-horticultural-and-organic-gardening-2](https://www.desertcart.nz/products/237859105-swiftair-perlite-100l-bag-for-horticultural-and-organic-gardening-2) --- *Product available on Desertcart New Zealand* *Store origin: NZ* *Last updated: 2026-06-14*
