About Hydrated Lime
Hydrated lime — calcium hydroxide — is produced by slaking quick lime under controlled water addition. The result is a dry, stable powder that delivers alkalinity without the heat of reaction and the handling constraints of quick lime, which makes it the practical choice wherever material is dosed by hand or stored on an open site.
It is used across water treatment, effluent neutralisation, construction, and soil correction. Deshwali Minerals produces hydrated lime alongside its quick lime lines at Borunda, from the same controlled limestone feed.

Packing, storage and transport
Lime degrades on contact with moisture and air. How it is packed and stored is a technical decision, not a cosmetic one.
Packing
- 10 kg bags
- 40 kg bags
- Jumbo bags
Recommended against transit distance and destination conditions.
Storage
- Store in a dry, covered area on pallets, clear of the ground.
- Keep bags sealed — prolonged air exposure causes carbonation and loss of available lime.
- Rotate stock; use oldest consignments first.
Transport
- Bagged and jumbo bag despatch from Borunda, Jodhpur.
- Palletised and sheeted loading for road transport.
- Containerised loading available for export consignments.
Safety
- Alkaline and irritant to skin, eyes and respiratory tract.
- Use gloves, goggles and dust protection.
- Refer to the Safety Data Sheet before handling. [SDS — TO BE SUPPLIED BY COMPANY]

Hydrated Lime is supplied in 10 kg and 40 kg bags and jumbo bags, with bulk options where your handling allows. Packing is recommended against the transit distance and destination conditions, because lime degrades on contact with moisture and air.
Yes. The size fraction and grade are agreed at the quotation stage and the consignment is screened or ground to match. Tell us the duty the material has to perform and we will recommend the fraction.
The specification parameters are listed on this page. The verified figures for each parameter are supplied by the company against your specific grade requirement — this site does not publish specification values that have not been confirmed by the plant.
Store dry, under cover and sealed until use, clear of the ground, and rotate stock so the oldest consignment is used first. Lime reacts with atmospheric moisture and carbon dioxide, which reduces available lime over time.
