Environmental performance
Our calcium carbonate is certified as a suitable product for use in organic agriculture.
Sodira has high purity (>95%) calcium carbonate (limestone) deposits from which it sources a large part of its range of products.
The calcium carbonate receives an exhaustive control from the very moment of its prospecting, which continues with a rigorous selection of the material to be processed in the plant, ensuring a high richness throughout the chain of derived products.
The La Ofra operation in Alicante is an example of the careful production process to which this material is subjected, resulting in an excellent product that is mainly used for animal feed.

CALCIUM CARBONATE GRANULATES
Granulates are calcium carbonates (CaCO3) classified in fine or coarse white/cream grains of natural origin. Obtained by crushing, grinding and subsequent classification of calcareous sedimentary rock
