Kirchheimer Muschelkalk (Shell Limestone)
Kirchheimer Muschelkalk was formed in a sea basin inhabitated by animals and plants. The shells, housings and plant remains consisting of lime were partially shattered, built lime mud and became fossilised. From surrounding shore regions, iron hydroxides were washed in and sedimented in the lime mud. Kirchheimer Muschelkalk has a wide range of applications, is completely resistant to frost and can also withstand any other climatic influence. Therefore, it is suitable for indoor and outdoor projects, plate and massive construction and landscape gardening.
