About Travertine

Its natural banding and pores give a warm, soft feel. For floors and countertops, filled travertine is usually used. We also do CNC curved cutting and 3D surface shaping on travertine (see the real video below), and have mitred 50 mm, 2640 mm long travertine at 51 degrees.

Where is it used?

Used for interior walls and floors, feature walls, lobbies, kitchen and counter tops, and vanity tops. With CNC 3D carving it also makes a striking feature wall.

Good to know when choosing

Travertine has small pores, so filled travertine is mainly used for floors and countertops. It is sensitive to acids, so we recommend a sealer on countertops, and since every slab is different it is best to choose in person.

Where to buy Travertine in Korea

You can see and choose the actual stone in the yard of GJ STONE TRADE at 196-4 Maejari-gil, Gwangju-si, Gyeonggi-do. We cut it to size and do edge profiles, holes and CNC work in our own factory, ship anywhere in Korea by freight, and can install it on site as a licensed stonework contractor.

Prices depend on thickness, finish, size and quantity, so we quote each order individually. Email us photos or drawings (DWG, DXF, PDF).
