Travertine consists of calcium carbonate and is formed around hot springs and in caves. It has a porous structure like a sponge. These pores are caused by the gases that were present in it during its natural formation which then came out. It is generally known as a kind of marble, but it differs from marble with its porous structure.

Travertine tiles can be used in a variety of locations, similar to other types of natural stones. Some examples:
Even though the travertine is softer than other types of natural stones, many use them as floor tiles due to the fact that they look fantastic!. Their warm colours and smooth appearance have been appealing many. Use them in your bathroom floors, kitchen floors or hallway floors. We have seen many of our clients to tile almost an entire home with the same travertine tile.
These products are very suitable for bathroom use and are often preferred in the bathroom. Especially tumbled travertine or honed and filled travertine are the most preferred types. They are not waterproof and porous in comparison to other types of flooring, however with the tanking systems, any kind of wet areas can be tiled with travertine with no issues.
This type of natural stone tile is ideal for adding fabulous designs to your outdoor spaces. You can use outdoor travertine tiles in your garden, patio, garage, and around your pool, which makes you feel like you are living in harmony with nature. 30mm travertine tiles are recommended for outside and tumbled travertine patio tiles are our best selling material.
