Business
Lime Chemicals Limited (LIMECHM.BO) manufactures and markets a diverse portfolio of chemical products, including calcium hydroxide, calcium oxide (quicklime), hydrated lime, limestone powder, and dolomite powder; it also provides water treatment chemicals, industrial minerals, and customized chemical solutions for various applications. The company serves industries such as water treatment, steel, paper, pharmaceuticals, construction, and environmental services, with operations primarily in India and exports to select international markets. Founded in 1980 and headquartered in Vadodara, Gujarat, India, Lime Chemicals operates through manufacturing facilities in India and focuses on sustainable production processes. In recent developments, the company expanded its production capacity through strategic investments in new kilns and facilities in 2024, enhancing output for hydrated lime and quicklime to meet growing demand in the water purification and construction sectors. Lime Chemicals formed a key partnership with a leading Indian steel manufacturer in early 2025 for long-term supply of dolomite and limestone products, bolstering its revenue stability. Additionally, it launched a new line of eco-friendly water treatment chemicals targeting municipal corporations, aligning with India's national clean water initiatives.
