Calcium carbonate is an essential and versatile mineral that finds its way into our daily life. Calcium carbonate is an inorganic salt primarily used in the management and treatment of low calcium conditions, GERD, CKD, and various other indicated conditions. It is classified as a calcium supplement, antacid, and phosphate binder.

Calcium carbonate is largely employed in the pulp and paper industry. It can be used as a filter and pigment, making possible the production of a whiter, higher-quality pigment than other minerals.

In the construction industry, calcium carbonate is used as a filler in concrete, increasing its durability and appearance and purifying metals for use in construction applications.

Another application of calcium carbonate is in fertilizers to provide calcium to plants and pH stabilization of the soil.

Calcium carbonate can also be additive to food products for livestock animals and humans and as a supplement in vitamins. In water and sewer treatment plants, calcium carbonate is employed in the removal of acidity and impurities.
