Popular Uses of Travertine Tiles

Travertine tiles exhibit beautiful light chocolate, caramel and beige colors. The material is extremely dense and contains fewer holes than usual. These have been factory filled or tumbled and left unfilled as you can see from the images below (scroll down to the end of the page). There are three types ofs: classico, walnut, mocha and pewter.
Travertine is really tough and very dense so it can be used almost anywhere. The most popular uses are kitchens, bathrooms, living and entertainment areas. The tumbled product is popular for outdoor paving on verandahs and alfresco dining areas. Travertine is also available in 30mm thick pavers with a tumbled finish. The tumbling process has two important effects. Firstly, it softens and lightens the color. Secondly, grip characteristics are improved resulting in a lower risk of slipping when the surface is wet. This is why tumbled travertine is used widely on outdoor surfaces that get wet; bathrooms too! Tumbled pavers can be seen in the image of the pool deck - below right.
