Limestone Products
Limestone is one of the types of young sedimentary limestone, which is mainly composed of the mineral calcite. This stone has high water absorption and low compressive strength compared to other building stones. In the last few years, with the advancement of technology in nano science, limestone is resistant to high water absorption. Limestone, when covered with nano, can be used in the facade of the building due to its reasonable price compared to white travertine stones.
This type of stone is mostly light and whitish in color and is very uniform. The best place to use this stone is in dry areas and in interior facades and interior walls. Limestone features include uniformity, light color, Reasonable price, high water absorption, and stain resistance.
