Applications

Light travertine is a highly versatile stone used in both interiors and exteriors. Indoors, it is commonly applied in living room floors, wall cladding, bathrooms, and kitchens. Outdoors, it enhances patios, terraces, pool decks, and garden landscapes. Its soft beige tone makes it suitable for high-end residential properties, commercial buildings, and public projects where elegance and functionality are equally important.

Floors

Light Travertine’s warm beige tones add comfort and elegance. 10–12 mm tiles suit interiors; honed or brushed finishes improve traction and comfort. Use large formats for seamless design.

Bathrooms

Works beautifully with natural wood and neutral cabinetry. Honed is best for floors, polished for walls and vanities. Seal regularly to resist water and stains.

Kitchens

Durable for countertops, backsplashes and flooring. Choose honed or brushed for slip comfort; seal surfaces against oils and acids. Keep spare tiles for replacements.

Facades & Cladding

Light beige tones blend with many architectural styles. Use 20–30 mm slabs for exterior cladding; consider ventilated facade systems for performance.

Floors & Interiors

Ideal for flooring in living rooms, lobbies, and corridors, providing a timeless look.

Bathrooms

Popular for bathroom floors, shower walls, and vanities due to its warmth and elegance.

Outdoor Spaces

Used in terraces, pool decks, and patios to create cohesive exterior designs.

Specifications

Light travertine is produced in tiles, slabs, pavers, and mosaics. Tile thickness typically ranges from 10–12 mm, slabs from 20–30 mm, and pavers from 30–50 mm for outdoor projects. Absorption averages 0.4–0.8%, making sealing necessary for long-term durability. Light travertine is available in finishes such as polished, honed, brushed, and tumbled, giving designers flexibility for any project type.

Installation & Care

Light travertine should be installed with cement-based adhesives on stable substrates and sealed after installation. Outdoors, ensure proper drainage to prevent water damage. Routine cleaning with pH-neutral products preserves the stone’s beauty, while resealing every 12–24 months maintains protection against stains and moisture. Avoid acidic cleaners, which can etch the stone surface.
