Additional Information

White Travertine is one of the most prestigious façade stones in Iran, known for its bright tone, uniform texture, and excellent mortar adhesion. It is widely used in Roman, classical, and modern architectural styles.
Famous varieties such as Abbasabad White and Abyaneh White are extracted from the renowned quarries of Mahallat and Natanz.

Due to its light weight, lowwater absorption, high polishability, and long-term durability, White Travertine is suitable for a wide range of interior and exterior applications.
It offers outstanding visual beauty and allows the implementation of detailed architectural designs. Its anti-slip properties (when not fully polished) and high compressive strength make it ideal for luxury projects.

Karimi Stone (Negin Sang Karimi) supplies all grades and sorts of White Travertine with professional processing, export packaging, and production in blocks, slabs, tiles, and desired sizes for both domestic and international projects.

 

1. Why White Travertine Is Ideal for Façades

  • Lightweight:
    • Natural porosity reduces specific weight
    • Decreases structural load on the building
  • Excellent adhesion:
    • Mortar penetrates the pores, creating strong mechanical bonding
  • Superior workability:
    • Allows precise cutting and complex architectural details
    • Perfect for Roman, classical, and modern façades
  • Luxurious beauty value:
    • White color brightens the façade and enhances the sense of scale
    • More prestigious and valuable than beige, honey, or chocolate travertine
