Building Lime


Building lime has been used as a binder in mortars, plasters, distemper paints, and more for thousands of years.

High calcium quicklime (Calcium Oxide) has many uses, including for making limewash and hot mortar mixes.

Natural Hydraulic Lime (NHL) is produced by heating limestone that naturally contains clay and other mineral substances, and when mixed with different types of sand, is also used to make mortars and plasters.
