ABOUT INDIANA LIMESTONE

Designing structures and spaces for people to work in, live in and enjoy is about more than completing the project. It's about form, functionality, harmony and longevity. It's about incorporating unique design with materials that make a statement.

Victor Oolitic natural limestone provides timeless presence and limitless possibility. Its magnificence is instantly recognizable.

THE NATURAL CHOICE

Victor Oolitic limestone is harvested efficiently with minimal waste of stone or energy. It doesn't require the multiple manufacturing processes and energy expenditures necessary to produce man-made products such as precast stone.

At Victor Oolitic, we take corporate responsibility and environmental stewardship a step further. The U.S. Green Building Council (USBGC) defines "the triple bottom line" as a healthy and dynamic balance between environmental, social and economic prosperity. Victor Oolitic Stone has adopted the triple bottom line as a guiding principle of our own. Recent changes to our stone harvesting process have allowed us to reduce waste in our quarrying process, therefore reducing shipping weight and fuel consumption. This change has also significantly reduced our recordable incident rate, keeping our people, our most valuable asset, safe. We've also been able to maintain a net zero usage level in our manufacturing water consumption through a regulated recycling process.

At Victor Oolitic we feel that building green has never been so easy. And with Indiana limestone, it has never lasted so long.
