SBN · Understanding and comparing stone
Turkish travertine: its origin and natural colours
Denizli is known for travertine, and Pamukkale shows its formation in the landscape. Building stone must still be selected by its particular source and product specification.
How travertine forms
Calcium carbonate precipitates from water under particular geological conditions. Layers, pores and mineral content create variation in colour and pattern. View several pieces to understand this natural character.
From quarry to finished stone
SBN’s production background includes quarrying and stone processing in Turkey. Block selection, cutting, finishing and sorting influence the final appearance. Ask for the origin and processing details of your chosen product.
Classic, Light, Silver, Noce and Gold
These names distinguish colour ranges, from pale beige through silvery grey to brown and warm golden tones. They do not promise an identical shade in every piece. Compare actual samples in the intended light, both dry and damp.
Your next step
- Choose a colour range that suits the surroundings.
- Compare several real pieces.
- Confirm the batch and availability for the whole project.
