## Products & services

United States Lime & Minerals sells crushed limestone and aggregate, pulverized limestone (PLS, also called ground calcium carbonate), quicklime, hydrated lime, and lime slurry. Its PLS is dried and ground to particle sizes with mean sizes ranging from 20 to 325 mesh, and is used in roofing shingles, asphalt, animal feed, glass, agriculture, emissions treatment, and coal-mine safety dust. The company also identifies dolomitic PLS among its products. [2](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P91028678)[8](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P44811399)[9](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P35435762)[10](https://www.uslm.com/high-calcium-limestone.html)

Quicklime (calcium oxide) is produced by calcining limestone and is sold in pebble and granular sizes; applications include metal processing, emissions treatment, soil stabilization, paper manufacturing, sanitation, and water treatment. Hydrated lime (calcium hydroxide), made by adding water to quicklime, serves water treatment and sanitation, construction, emissions treatment, asphalt, oil-and-gas drilling, and chemical production. Lime slurry is a suspended calcium-hydroxide product used in soil stabilization and industrial treatment; listed varieties include commercial, on-site commercial, industrial-grade, and small-particle-size slurry. The company also lists lime kiln dust for soil modification and industrial-waste stabilization. [2](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P91028678)[8](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P44811399)[11](https://www.uslm.com/high-calcium-quicklime.html)[12](https://www.uslm.com/hydrated-lime.html)[13](https://www.uslm.com/lime-slurry.html)[14](https://www.uslm.com/lime-kiln-dust.html)

Production equipment has stated annual capacities of approximately 500,000 tons of quicklime and 800,000 tons of PLS in Texas; 650,000 tons of quicklime and 300,000 tons of PLS in Arkansas; and 250,000 tons of quicklime and 150,000 tons of PLS at St. Clair. Carthage equipment is rated for approximately 900,000 tons of crushed limestone and PLS, while Mill Creek has approximately 300,000 tons of dolomitic PLS capacity. These are equipment capacities, not actual production or sales. The company reports its products together as one operating segment and does not disclose individual product revenue or sales percentages.
