Pumice stone is a lightweight, porous igneous rock that forms during explosive volcanic eruptions, It has long been used as an abrasive in cleaning, polishing, cosmetic, skin care products and scouring compounds, It is also employed as a lightweight aggregate in precast masonry units, poured concrete, insulation, acoustic tile, and plasters.

Pumice Stone Textile Grade: Pumice has long been used for washing of denim and other hosiery garments, leather garments and goods.

Pumice can be used in construction industry to produce lightweight concrete and other concrete products. For example : lightweight blocks, panels, wall, bricks, floors. Pumice Concrete is a low density, lightweight, low-rise structural concrete using 3/8 pumice aggregate, Portland cement, and water. (a pozzolan lime plaster is ideal), further improving the thermal performance of the structure.

Pumice and cement enjoy a very dynamic relationship — a relationship Roman engineers and builders relied on completely. A relationship that worked so well that much of their empire of concrete endures to this day—some 2000 years later. Fact is, the hydrated lime cement they used made a poor concrete by itself. It was only after they added ne-grained pumice [01] (what they called pozzolana), did their concrete achieve
its impressive millenniaspanning chemistry.
