Quicklime is manufactured by calcining high quality limestone at elevated temperatures. Quicklime is highly reactive with water generating considerable heat in the hydration process.

Usage of quicklime in chemical processing is cost effective compared to use of other materials. Steel, chemical and construction industries successfully use quick lime in several applications. Quicklime is also widely used in soil stabilisation processes.

Independent cement and Lime supply quicklime according to the Australian standard specification AS1672.1 (Lime for building).
