Limestone is a natural stone, formed hundreds of millions of
years ago by the impact and fusion of debris, shells, corals and other marine
life under the sea, and through the long-term collision and compression of the
crust.
The Limestone also enjoys another noble name, the Stone of Life.
Material classes
1)According to the colour, limestone can be roughly divided into: white limestone, gray limestone, brown limestone, beige limestone, yellow limestone.
2)According to the surface texture, limestone can be divided into: limestone honed surface, limestone bush-hammered surface, limestone wire drawing surface.
Material properties
1)Natural environmental protection, no radiation
Any piece of natural stone is a radiation-free, green and environmentally friendly building material. Limestone is a material formed after hundreds of millions of years of precipitation and crystallization, with superior performance.
2)Hygroscopicity and heat absorption
The weak water absorption performance of limestone can effectively regulate indoor humidity, and its natural high heat storage performance can absorb severe external heat and then slowly release, contributing to a warm winter and cool summer environment.
3)Beautiful texture and color
4)Inelastic, easy to crack
Limestone is hard, but not elastic. If
the panels crack, it means the whole stone has to be replaced. Because
of its natural nature, it is easy to crack, and any external impact is likely
to increase the speed of its cracking.
5)Limited size
6)Easy to fade and dirty
Limestone is made of calcium carbonate and has fine pores on the surface. If water stains are found on the surface, the stains can be easily absorbed into the stone. And as a result of craft limitation, the joint of two stone cannot be joined together perfectly, easy to hide filth and dirt, too.
