asternbulk Lime Product's Quicklime (calcium oxide -CaO ) is produced by the calcination of high purity limestone in modern lime kilns. It is low in impurities and possesses a high degree of reactivity making it suitable for use in chemical processes of many Industrial applications.
Limestone of size 0-40mm is currently produced at the plant. Plans are underway to produce Limestone power to cater requirements of customers.
ELPPL's consisant quality Quick lime is a back bone for making high quality Hydrated Lime. Plans are under progress to cater to the customers who require Hydrated lime.At present hydation is done as a job work for specific cutomers.
