LIGHTWEIGHT PERFORMANCE. WITHOUT SACRIFICING STRENGTH.

When weight, strength and performance matter, conventional sand isn’t always the best answer.

Spex•Lite® 9185 Sand Alternative is an ultra-lightweight mineral filler engineered for manufacturers and formulators looking to reduce weight while maintaining the performance their finished products demand.

Spex•Lite® 9185 can help:

• Reduce Weight — up to 80% lighter than conventional sand
• Increase Volume — approximately 5:1 volume replacement vs. sand
• Maintain Performance — excellent strength-to-weight potential in engineered systems
• Improve Processing — excellent handling, dispersion, incorporation and pumpability
• Reduce Handling & Logistics Demands — significantly less weight for comparable volume
• Eliminate Free Silica — non-toxic and contains no free silica

One lightweight filler. A wide range of possibilities.

Spex•Lite® 9185 is well suited for applications where reducing weight without sacrificing performance can create a competitive advantage, including:

Composites • Roof Coatings • 3D Printing • GFRC • Precast • Resin Flooring • Underlayments • Specialty Cementitious Systems

Whether you're developing a lighter composite, reducing the weight of a coating or flooring system, or looking for an alternative to conventional mineral fillers, Spex•Lite® 9185 gives formulators another tool to engineer performance by volume—not just by weight.

Lightweight. Strong. Consistent. Easy to incorporate.

Reduce Weight. Increase Possibilities.

Traditional cementitious systems and roofing systems rely heavily on sand and other fillers, but not every project benefits from carrying that much weight.

Spex•Lite® 9185 is an ultra-lightweight sand mineral-based sand replacement designed for applications where weight reduction is critical.

• Approximately 80% lighter than conventional sand
• Ultra low specific gravity: ~0.54 g/cc
• No crystalline silica for improved worker safety
• Reduces dead load compared to traditional aggregate systems
• Easier handling, transportation, pumpability and placement
• Compatible with a wide range of lightweight cementitious formulations
• No pre-wetting required; doesn’t act like a sponge in the system

From renovation projects and floor underlayments to precast products and roofing compounds, Spex•Lite® 9185 helps manufacturers and contractors achieve significant weight savings while maintaining volume and improving performance.

As building owners, engineers, and contractors continue looking for ways to reduce structural loading and improve installation efficiency, lightweight aggregate technologies are becoming an increasingly important part of modern construction.

🚨 **GLOBAL SUPPLY IS IN SHOCK.**
And if you’re sourcing EPS or EPP beads right now… you’re feeling it.

From plant outages and raw material constraints to surging demand and unpredictable lead times, the market has become volatile—fast. What used to be a stable, dependable supply chain is now anything but.

That leaves manufacturers dealing with:
❌ Late or missed shipments
❌ Inconsistent product quality
❌ Rising costs and limited availability
❌ Uncertainty in planning and production

If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone.

At **SPEX•LITE®**, we’ve been working alongside our customers to navigate exactly this kind of disruption—and more importantly, to stabilize through it.
