Vision for the Future
Greer Lime Company has deep roots in the community, but a vision for the future. We have implemented new ideas and new equipment into our operation to meet our customer’s needs.
Rotary Kilns
Through our Operating Control System, we have computerized control of our kilns; analyzing the kiln dynamics and making responses to the firing rate based on hourly quality tests. Two rotary kilns are operated and controlled by the latest technologies. Computer-generated statistics are monitored by plant management and kiln operators perform hourly carbon/sulfur analysis on production to ensure that lime quality meets customer specifications.
