Marble – Granite – Travertine
Granite is a hard rock formed from magma. It is formed when lava erupts then cooled and solidified before it reaches the surface. Granite being one of the hardest rocks, it can be used in any type of area, internally and externally. If used for kitchen benchtops, hot pots from the stove can be put directly on top of the granite and cutting can be done straight on the top without it scratching.

Marble is a softer rock formed from recrystallized carbonate minerals. Marble characteristic swirls and veins are formed from various minerals. They come in many different colours.

Travertine is a type of Limestone formed by hot mineral springs. Travertine also has soft swirls and can be cut a different way from the block to show a vien cut through each slab.

Marble & Travertine are both a softer natural stone. It is not recommended for kitchens and bbq tops. This being oils, wines and lemon substances can eat away the sealer faster and mark the top. Honed Marbles are recommended for external areas. Filled & Honed Travertine is recommended for external areas.

Care & Maintenance
Marble, Granite & Travertine benchtops and vanity tops should be cleaned with a damp non coarse cloth and warm water. Do not use sand paper or cleaners containing grit or abrasives on polished marble surfaces. Do not use vinegar, lemon juice or other cleaners containing acids on Marble or Travertine.
Granite, Marble and Travertine bench tops are sealed on installation and we recommend sealing of all flooring. All natural stone flooring should be re-sealed approximately every 2-3 years on high traffic areas.
