Super Light travertine is usually found over clayey and sandy Pliocene units and alluviums. Super Light Travertine is consisted by sparicalcite with 30-100micron grain sizes and micritic calcite grains of 1-4 microns. It has a porous texture. Super Light travertine is a special selection of our tile kinds and produced with intensive care. Can be used in interior/exterior plating, floor covering or decoration. The suitability to take block and plate, to cut sides and corners; the shapeability; to polish; and the cutting rate are all good. There isn’t any rusting risk.
