Our History

Graymont’s story began with purchasing a lime and limestone operation near Sherbrooke, Quebec. That one site set the foundation for what would become a trusted name in calcium-based solutions worldwide. Over the decades, we expanded with purpose — across Canada, through the US, into New Zealand, Australia, Malaysia, and the Philippines. Our partnership with Grupo Calidra extended our reach into Latin America.

Today, we honour our history and stay focused on our mission to deliver essential calcium-based solutions to meet the world’s changing needs.
