Limestone filler: the proven concrete additive

Limestone filler as a concrete additive offers clear advantages: it optimises packing density in the cementitious system, improves workability and finish, and helps you lower the clinker factor — the main source of embodied CO₂ in concrete.

With around 8.7 million tonnes of cement produced in the UK every year, the potential to replace up to 20% of this with Limestone filler means millions of tonnes in carbon savings.
