Product description
Silver Travertine Tumbled French Tiles are natural travertine tiles valued for their warm carbonate texture, practical tile processing performance and refined architectural appearance. The material is associated with Turkey, Iran and selected travertine quarry regions known for silver-grey carbonate deposits with stable tile yield. It shows silver grey, ash beige, pale charcoal and light cream bands with natural pore movement, making it suitable for both calm residential interiors and hospitality projects that need a natural stone surface.
The stone body has porous carbonate travertine texture with fine calcite layers, filled or unfilled pores and linear vein-cut movement. Its visual character is defined by cool silver-grey sedimentary bands with soft beige transitions and naturally distributed small pores. Because travertine is a natural sedimentary stone, each tile may show slight pore, band and tone variation; dry layout is recommended before installation.
Travertine is a calcite-rich carbonate material with natural cavities, so correct filling, sealing and neutral cleaning are important for long service life. Silver Travertine Tumbled French Tiles are recommended for interior floors, bathroom walls, feature walls, hotel corridors, stair tiles and covered exterior cladding. For wet zones and exterior covered areas, penetrating sealer and suitable adhesive should be selected according to project conditions.
Category: Natural Travertine Tiles
Color: silver grey, ash beige, pale charcoal and light cream bands with natural pore movement; natural sedimentary variation should be confirmed by sample and batch inspection before bulk installation.
Surface Finish Available: Honed / Polished / Brushed / Tumbled / Sandblasted / Bush-hammered / Filled / Unfilled
Product Form: Natural Travertine Tiles
Texture: porous carbonate travertine texture with fine calcite layers, filled or unfilled pores and linear vein-cut movement. honed and filled finish gives a smooth modern surface; tumbled or brushed finish supports softer architectural texture.
Density: 2.35 - 2.55 g/cm3 (stable compactness for architectural tile applications)
Water Absorption: 0.60 - 1.80% (sealing treatment recommended for wet areas, exterior covered use and stain-prone spaces)
Compressive Strength: 45 - 95 MPa (suitable for conventional floor and wall tile applications)
Abrasion Resistance: moderate wear resistance suitable for residential and light commercial tile applications after sealing
GANGSAW SUITABILITY
Silver Travertine Tumbled French Tiles raw blocks are compatible with standard gangsaw processing equipment for slab and tile cutting. The material features stable carbonate bedding, natural pore distribution and practical finished-product yield. Cool silver-grey sedimentary bands with soft beige transitions and naturally distributed small pores help the finished tiles retain a recognizable natural travertine appearance after filling, calibration, edge trimming and surface finishing.
Recommended Processing: Gangsaw slabs (1.8 cm & 2 cm), followed by filling, calibration, edge trimming and honed / polished / brushed / tumbled surface treatment
Expected Slab Yield: Approximately 76-86 slabs per block (based on 1.8 cm thickness)
Polish Result: honed and filled finish gives a smooth modern surface; tumbled or brushed finish supports softer architectural texture The final surface should be inspected under project lighting to confirm pore filling, tone and band consistency.
