Good limestone is precious

To produce high quality quicklime, you need good limestone. And that is rare. The quarry is therefore one of the most important components of a lime plant. The highest possible proportion of the valuable resource "limestone" should be able to be used for the production of quicklime.

With a combination of different kiln types, the degree of utilisation of your quarry can be significantly increased. The diagram shows the whole range of usable stone sizes. With our Finelime^® kilns, you can use smaller limestone without any problems, even at high production rates.
