• Within the metallurgical context, the daily demands for lime combined with the customers' limited storage capacity demands the presence of local and credible coverage.
  
• Mercer Lime at Branchton, PA represents that natural geographic supplier. We assume responsibility for assurance of uninterrupted supply on a timely basis.
  
• It's simple! We haul our products directly from our plant, and therefore do not contend with geographic obstacles.
  
• We respond to intra-day order volatility. That's normal for us!

Corporate Culture and Philosophy

The foundation of our business plan lies within the scope of serving our natural market with prompt and competitive supply of lime and lime derivative products. We are driven by the principles of a "job shop" culture and the conservation of resources. This enables us to serve our customers with flexible customization. This is the vital component that makes Mercer Lime a different brand of lime company.
