United States Lime & Minerals, Inc. products

All US Lime quicklime products are produced from high purity natural deposits of limestone from one of our three production locations. Quicklime is made by heating high calcium limestone in specially designed kilns.

Reacting quicklime with water in a hydrator produces calcium hydroxide, commonly referred to as hydrated lime.

Lime Kiln Dust (LKD) is a co-byproduct of the lime manufacturing process.

Lime slurry is a suspension of calcium hydroxide in water. The product is a user-friendly, cost-effective alkali.

Limestone is natural sedimentary rock deposits composed of calcium carbonate. All limestone quarried or mined by US Lime falls under the classification of high calcium limestone.
