Formation & Characteristics

Formed by mineral deposits from natural hot springs, its signature honeycomb pores define its look: colors range from off-white, light
yellow to golden, with soft, flowing veins; warm to the touch (no coldness), adding a "breathable" vibe that makes spaces more welcoming.

Revival in Modern Design

With its "natural warmth", travertine is a new favorite among designers: it’s used for living room feature walls in high-end Italian homes
and lobby floors in Turkish boutique hotels, blending retro charm with modern styles like minimalism and light luxury.

Processing & Finishing: Sealed vs Unsealed—Choose by Scenario

The key processing difference lies in "sealing pores", which depends on usage needs:

• Unsealed Finish: Preserves natural pore structure, highlighting original texture and breathability. Ideal for low-to-medium traffic spaces
pursuing "natural aesthetics"—such as TV feature walls in high-end residences (to emphasize unique texture), art gallery floors (to create
a natural atmosphere), and public area walls in guesthouses (to convey warmth). Note: Regularly clean pore dust with a soft brush; avoid
long-term oil contact.

• Sealed Finish: Fills pores with imported transparent sealant, which maintains natural holes while creating a smoother, denser surface
for better stain and wear resistance. Suitable for high-traffic or humid areas—such as hotel lobby floors (high foot traffic, easy to clean),
kitchen countertops (prevents soy sauce/oil penetration), bathroom walls (moisture-proof, reduces mold), and commercial counters (easy
daily wiping). Yuanda uses a "double-layer penetrating sealing process" that retains travertine’s warmth without a rigid look.

In addition, matte, brushed, or antique finishes can further match styles: matte for bedrooms, brushed for industrial-style spaces.

Sustainability & Timeless Value

As a natural stone, travertine has a lifespan of decades, with old materials recyclable for reprocessing. Amid the "sustainable aesthetics"
trend, it requires minimal processing, balancing environmental protection and design texture perfectly.
