The global market for white limestones is quite limited, as there are quite a few types that are actually suitable for construction projects. However, there are still enough types of white limestone to establish a concrete selection based on three basic requirements common to all possible buyers – value for money, uniformity and finishing versatility.

The top three white limestones for cladding that we’ve selected are the Limra limestone, Capri limestone and Fatima. All of them retain a very uniform background and a flawless color uniformity, as well as a large range of possible finishings and a relatively affordable price for the respective quality standards. Learn more about each of these limestones below.

3. Fatima

The Fatima is a white colored limestone from Portugal. It has a fine grain structure and quite uniform background. This limestone accepts a large variety of finishings, including polished, honed, bush-hammered and scratched. Due to its excellent color uniformity, the Fatima is an ideal choice for cladding projects.

2. Capri Limestone

The Capri limestone is a light beige/white colored limestone from Spain. It has a very uniform background with a fine to medium grain. This high-demand limestone accepts a wide range of finishings such as polished, honed, sandblasted and bush-hammered. It is mostly recommended for cladding and stonework projects due to its standardization properties.

1. Limra Limestone

With an exceptional thin grain and a very uniform background, the Limra limestone is currently one of the whitest natural stones available in the global market. It can accept a huge variety of finishings but the most common ones are the polished and honed. Because this limestone is extremely uniform in both color and grain, it has become a preferential type for cladding, stonework and masonry projects.
