Product Details and Application Areas
Its body consists of balanced layers of rich brown, walnut, and dark beige (Noce Travertine) tones that add an organic warmth to spaces. Its surface features the characteristic horizontal/vertical linear flow of vein-cut Italian and Turkish travertines. The natural matte surface texture brings the classic and rich character of dark travertine to modern spaces. Thanks to its giant dimensions of 120×280 cm, it offers a fluid and seamless stone integrity on large walls, floors, and facades by eliminating the clutter of joints.
It is produced with a thickness of 6 millimeters. Problems such as open holes, crumbling, water absorption, and staining due to chemical reactions, which are frequently seen in real dark travertine stone, have been completely eliminated thanks to its non-porous sintered porcelain body. With its low square meter weight, it can be directly applied to the exterior shell of buildings in mechanical installations, on luxury bathroom accent walls, and on movable furniture surfaces without imposing a static load on the system.
Application Options
- Interior Walls and Panels: Thanks to its 120×280 cm size, it creates the effect of a full-length monolithic wood/stone panel behind TV units, around fireplaces, and in club or hotel lobbies. When its linear veins are used vertically, it increases the perception of ceiling height while adding a warm depth to the environment.
- Furniture Surfaces: With its 6mm thinness and lightness, it can be applied by gluing to kitchen island countertop side panels, bathroom cabinet doors, and architectural design tables. It does not strain supporting mechanisms and hinges.
- Facade and Floor: It shows full resistance to frost, high temperatures, and direct sunlight (UV) rays. No discoloration or deformation occurs on its brown background and travertine lines due to external weather conditions.
Advantages of Porcelain Material
- Liquid Repellency: Unlike real travertine, its pores are completely closed; acidic liquids, tea, coffee, or oil do not penetrate it. It does not require periodic filling (mastic) and protective polish (impregnation) applications.
- Heat Resistance: Since it is fired at high temperatures, it does not expand or crack on the surface against direct fire contact, high heat around fireplaces, and hot pot contact.
- Easy Cleaning: The non-porous porcelain surface does not harbor dirt, oil, or lime. It can be easily cleaned with standard neutral cleaners and a damp cloth, maintaining its hygienic structure as if new.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are travertine pores open like real stone, do they fill with dirt?
No. The surface texture visually reflects the natural layers of travertine exactly, but the porcelain body is completely closed. Since there are no pits or open holes, it does not accumulate dust, dirt, or lime.
Does the 120×280 cm travertine slab adhere directly to an existing floor or wall?
Yes. Thanks to its 6mm thinness, it is lightweight. After an adhesion-enhancing transition primer is applied to the surface, old ceramic or marble coverings can be glued directly over them without breaking.
Does the natural matte surface wear out or scratch over time?
Porcelain slabs achieve a very high degree of surface hardness through industrial firing technology; they do not wear out in heavy foot traffic, cleaning, and friction, and show maximum resistance to scratches.
