Applications of Marble, Granite, and Travertine
Marble, granite, and travertine are among the most preferred materials in the natural stone industry, each standing out in different applications thanks to their distinct technical properties. Selecting the right stone for the right project ensures maximum performance and aesthetic value. Therefore, the selection process should consider not only visual appeal but also the physical and mechanical properties of the material.
Marble is frequently preferred for interior floor coverings, stairs, countertop applications, and various interior designs due to its aesthetic vein structure and decorative appearance. Granite, with its high pressure resistance, hard structure, and low water absorption rate, is an ideal solution, especially for exterior cladding and open area floors exposed to heavy foot traffic. Granite offers long-term performance in projects requiring durability.
Travertine stands out in outdoor cladding, garden landscaping, pool edges, and facade applications with its naturally porous structure and warm color tones. Its non-slip surface advantage ensures safe use, especially in open area projects. Selecting natural stone based on a proper analysis of technical criteria according to the area of use ensures a long-lasting structure and adds aesthetic and holistic value to the project.
