Travertine

Our modern manufacturing facility allows us to process Travertine in significant volumes and also in small batches. Travertine is formed by a process of rapid precipitation of calcium carbonate, often at the mouth of a hot spring or in a limestone cave. In the latter, it can form stalactites, stalagmites, and other speleothems. Travertine is frequently used in Italy and the UK as a building material. Travertine is a terrestrial sedimentary rock, formed by the precipitation of carbonate minerals from solution in ground and surface waters, and/or geothermally heated hot-springs.

Travertine is a porous stone which may require sealing if installed within areas where moisture and damp can occur. Similar (but softer and extremely porous) deposits formed from ambient-temperature water are known as tufa.
