Limestone
North Indian Limestone ::
The fine-grained variety of limestone is known as Kota stone. The blue-grey and brown-green colours of this stone are most popular. Kota stone is preferred for flooring and wall cladding, paving and facades of buildings. They are very tough, non water-absorbent, non-slip, non-porous and have excellent stain removability. Moreover, their resistance to wear and delamination is higher than other stones. They are available in different sizes and thicknesses.
Both Kota Blue & Brown are extremely versatile limestones and can be well honed, polished, sandblasted, brushed & tumbled. hence they can be supplied in a variety of finishes. The export of Kota stones has been going on since last 25 years. Many historical buildings in different countries have used this limestone for flooring & wall cladding.

South Indian Limestone ::
There is a very nice selection of limestones from south India. The colors range from pale green, pink, grey to the yellow, blue & black. Different varieties exhibit different finish capabilities. For example if Lime black can be hand cut into thick slabs and cobbles then Lime Pink or Green cannot be. So at the time of specifying these for a project it is better to clarify the finishing that cna be possible in these. Of all these sandstones Lime Black is perhaps the most versatile. It can be honed, polished, brushed & tumbled.Iit is ideal for indoor and outdoor use.
The world over limestone is usually available in shades of cream. But the unique feature of south Indian limestones is that there is the color range of pink, green, yellow, grey & blue. This offers immense design possibilities to architects & designers. Creativity is only limited by their imagination!
