It is sought after by designers everywhere for its unique character.
Durability for Any Climate
If you are searching for a natural, durable wall cladding material that withstands extreme temperatures and weather conditions while continuing to look gorgeous for years, travertine tiles are the answer. This beautiful sedimentary stone provides durability and beauty to your facade for decades, and it is lightweight enough for any architectural structure.

Growing Demand and Appeal
Travertine's popularity as a cladding material has increased rapidly over the past two decades. Its porous structure brings a tranquil feeling of being surrounded by nature, as though the Earth is telling a story of times long forgotten. Each panel carries unique patterns formed over hundreds of thousands of years.
Finishes for Every Application
For wall cladding applications, travertine can be used in various finishes: split face for dramatic textural depth, bush hammered for a rugged industrial aesthetic, honed for clean contemporary lines, or polished for luxurious reflective surfaces. The stone performs equally well on interior feature walls and exterior building facades, with Etrusco giving designers a more dramatic grey travertine option.
