Aerogel granules
When size doesn't matter, but what you do with what you have does.
Granular aerogel, with its particles as light as air yet powerful in action, brings the innovation of aerogel into a new and incredibly versatile form. This variant of aerogel retains the exceptional insulating and lightweight properties of the original material but in a form that can be easily dispersed or blended for tailored applications.

Extraordinary applications
Granular aerogel is making its way into sectors ranging from sustainable construction to environmental engineering, from medicine to clean technology. In the building industry, it is used to insulate buildings more efficiently, reducing energy consumption. In environmental engineering, it helps capture CO₂ or remove oils and other pollutants from water. Its unique properties also make it useful in high-tech applications, such as high-efficiency batteries or environmental sensors.
Unique versatility
The small particles of granular aerogel offer an extremely high specific surface area, making them ideal for applications requiring absorption, catalysis or insulation. This form of aerogel can be used as an additive in composites to improve their insulating properties, as a filter medium to purify water or air from contaminants, or even as a lightweight substrate for plant growth in vertical farming.
