Frequently asked questions
Limestone Supply FAQs
Do all limestone products come from the same quarry material?
Yes. Lumps, granules, powder and aggregate are produced from the same natural limestone after crushing, grinding and screening.
Does the chemistry change with particle size?
Particle size does not by itself define the chemistry. Products are based on the same limestone source, while actual chemical values may vary by production lot. Final acceptance values are confirmed for the proposed grade or shipment.
Can Biliton produce custom sizes?
Yes. Custom sizes are reviewed against the application, order quantity, processing route and screening capability.
Which packing options are available?
Bulk, loose loading in 20 ft containers, jumbo bags, 25 kg bags and 50 kg bags are available according to product form and order requirements.
Buying Limestone for Lime Production: What to Confirm
Which specification should you send?
Send your kiln and feedstock requirements, chemistry and impurity limits, required lump-size range and monthly demand. Confirm acceptance criteria for the proposed source before ordering.
How should you compare a proposed source?
Share your current TDS or agreed specification, required test methods and acceptance limits. Request the relevant documents for the proposed grade and discuss sample or trial arrangements before confirming repeat supply.
What is needed for an export quotation?
Send the shipment quantity, estimated repeat demand, packing, destination and preferred Incoterm. CFR or CIF requires current freight. Final availability, specifications, documentation and terms are confirmed in the offer.
