Travertine Slab — Vein & Cross Cut

The range

Travertine Slab — Vein & Cross Cut

Gang-sawn slab up to 300 × 190 cm in 2 and 3 cm, in both cut orientations, shipped on A-frames in cut sequence with the block number on the bundle. Vein cut for architectural wall and continuous banding, cross cut for the classic flowered face. Bookmatched pairs are kept together; we will not break a sequence to fill a container.

Technical data

Our reading on the left, the standard on the right.

Values are from the current production run on Ivory and Classic, tested to the European methods named in the last column. Where a harmonised standard sets a limit we quote it; where the limit is our own we say so, because in this trade an in-house rule and a CE requirement get blurred deliberately and often.

Denizli travertine is not one material. Values above are for Ivory and Classic from our own benches; Country Classic and Walnut are denser and read differently on porosity and absorption. Ask for the bench-specific sheet before you write a specification against these numbers.
