Limestone flour

Limestone flour is a natural and environment-friendly material that is used in the liming of all types of soils to increase the pH level; in the liming of woods, lakes and water catchment areas, as well as to improve the fertility of the soil, providing the main nutrition elements for plants (especially for those crops that do not require magnesium). Limestone flour is a liming material of a slow action.

Limestone flour does not contain active CaO and MgO, therefore it can be incorporated into the soil in all seasons, but it is more effective to be done in the autumn or in the early spring.

Limestone flour is packed in 25 kg sacks, 56 sacks per pallet. Minimal amount of packed limestone flour sold is 1 pallet. We can pack the unpacked limestone meal in the large sacks.

Delivery is available. The unpacked limestone flour can be delivered by the tank-lorries.

The product is available in the SAULKALNE production unit.
