Three Countries, Three companies, Five Locations – One Brand: InterCal

Our Lime Companies under one Roof

As of January 2021, all Lime activities of Wietersdorfer will be combined under the shared umbrella brand – InterCal. Our companies produce at five locations in three countries:

  • InterCal Austria GmbH – Peggau
  • InterCal Croatia d.o.o. – Sirač and Ličko Lešće
  • InterCal Slovenija d.o.o. – Zagorje and Zidani Most (Apnenec d.o.o.)

We produce limestone and quick lime in various grain sizes, hydrated lime, and customer-specific lime mixtures for industrial and agricultural use.
InterCal stands for our international production sites and cooperations and, according to our vision, for great commitment beyond our borders to open up new markets from the Alps to the Black Sea.
InterCal also stands for competence in processing calcium carbonate limestone into end products for industry and commercial users.
We are large enough to assert ourselves in international competition and simultaneously flexible enough to meet the individual requirements of our customers – we present you with:

Areas of Application

As a competent partner, we offer many solutions, however, we do not have the complete product range at all sites. Discover where we can best meet your lime concerns.

Agriculture and Forestry

Agriculture and Forestry

Regular liming is an essential part of agricultural practice. It supplies the soil with important nutrients (calcium, magnesium). Furthermore, lime neutralises harmful acids, the humus is regenerated, and soil fertility increases.

Chemical Industry

Chemical Industry

Lime has a long and diverse history, but its applications in the field of chemistry are just as varied. They include using lime for adjusting pH values, for neutralisation, as a reaction agent, a filler, and much more.

Production:

Iron & Steel

Iron & Steel

Steel has become an indispensable constituent of infrastructure, modern architecture and automobile manufacturing. Lightweight steel beams and high strength automobile bodies are in demand.

Environmental Protection

Environmental Protection

The principal areas of application in environmental protection are the purification of exhaust gases and wastewater. For example, lime is used to bind sulphur oxide emissions.

Construction & Civil Engineering

Construction & Civil Engineering

Lime has been used successfully in construction for thousands of years, as evidenced by many beautifully preserved buildings from ancient Roman times. Lime plasters and mortars are used in the building construction industry.

Production:   

Stabilisation

Stabilisation

For several years now, we have offered an extensive soil solidification product portfolio tailored to the geological conditions in question.

Production:   

Pulp & Paper

Pulp & Paper

The manufacturing process in the paper and cellulose industry is very water-intensive, which is why special emphasis is placed on closed production cycles. Cellulose is the basis for making paper and is obtained from raw wood in a chemical pulping process (generally the kraft pulping or sulphate process).

Production:

Stone Aggregates

Stone Aggregates

Stone aggregates are produced by processing the limestone mined from the Čardak quarry which is located approximately 2 km away from the office buildings in Ličko Lešće. Čardak is located in an ecologically intensive and mountainous region in Croatia (near river Gacka and several national parks: Plitvice Lakes, North Velebit, Paklenica), therefore, it is crucial to pay special attention to environmental protection.
