At Old World Stoneworks, we fabricate our man-made limestone to emulate Indiana limestone, also known as Bedford limestone, recognized to be the highest quality quarried limestone in the United States. Using man-made limestone is a cost-effective alternative to natural limestone while still maintaining the inherit characteristics.
To make our limestone, we use a dry mixture of finely grated aggregates and silica sand mixed with a bonding and hardening agent. We then put this mixture through a mulling machine where it is mixed with water in a forming process which makes it equally as durable and dense as natural limestone.
When considering limestone alternatives, it’s essential to understand the benefits of using man-made limestone. This material not only replicates the aesthetic appeal of natural limestone but also offers enhanced durability and versatility. Other popular alternatives to natural limestone include concrete, brick, and natural stone veneers. However, man-made limestone can be more environmentally friendly, as it reduces the need for quarrying and mining natural limestone.
