Exciting visit and tour at Lime Green’s state of the art production site!

Saturday, 25 November 2023

Even though Simon and his brother started out slaking quicklime into lime putty in small batches (like many of us have done) the realization of getting building limes out to the mainstream market has only been achieved by careful planning and investment (of both time and money) in unique plant and equipment.

This means that Lime Green can produce both large and small runs of pre-mixed dry bagged mortars to a level of accuracy to be admired. Lime Green want to be able to appeal not only to the new build market but for the refurbishment of solid walled buildings to improve their technical performance by making it easy to use and convenient.

We have organized two sessions for you to sign up to, either morning (10.30am until 12.30pm) or afternoon (1.30pm to 3.30pm) with a buffet lunch thrown in. You will be able to see how the production of ready mixed mortars happens, visit their quality control Laboratory and see a brand new machine that can mix fibres through lime mortar without them clumping!

This visit involves climbing up stairs (metal open stairs) to a height around 17m, so a good head for heights is necessary as are sturdy shoes and warm clothes (as this is mostly presented under covered but unheated space). Its £ 35.00 per person which includes the tour of the production site and a buffet lunch.
