Choosing Travertine Based on Local Climate Conditions
To align with the principles of exterior wall cladding, travertine is selected based on the local climate. For the coastal regions with high salt spray, Yushi Stone recommends Silver Grey Travertine due to its good weather resistance and its ability to withstand salt erosion and keep its surface from discoloring. Travertine in the northern regions, where there is extreme weather, should be able to withstand thermal expansion and contraction and is therefore recommended by Yushi Stone to have good thermal expansion and contraction performance to prevent cracking from thermal cycles. For the south, where it's rainy and humid mold and weathering by moisture can be inhibited using Yushi Stone travertine for which the waterproof sealant has been applied to prevent water penetration. Yushi Stone has considered the climatic conditions to ensure the selected travertine can withstand the local climate conditions during outdoor use and for an extended period of time for wall cladding.
How Travertine Pairs with Style
The clean look of your exterior wall cladding can be greatly enhanced through use of travertine that matches with your building’s architectural style. At Yushi Stone, we supply travertine in various color shades and surface textures so that they can be integrated with different design styles. For Classical European style villas, we suggest warm beige travertine with natural veining, for a refined and grand effect. For modern minimalist commercial buildings with modern architecture, Silver Grey Travertine, with very little texture, is the best option as it complements the uncluttered lines and the simplistic style of the structure. In Mediterranean style buildings, a more natural and warm look is achieved with tumbled travertine that has rustic-textured surfaces. Yushi Stone travertine comes in a wide finish of colors that can perfectly integrate with your building’s cladding design and elevate the style.
Understanding the Physical Properties of Travertine
Understanding the physical properties of travertine is important for selecting travertine for exterior wall cladding projects with specific practical requirements. Yushi Stone tests the essential physical properties of travertine, such as hardness, density, durability, and water absorption, to ensure they meet the engineering expectations for exterior wall cladding. Yushi Stone chooses travertine with average hardness and high impact resistance for cladding of exterior walls of high-rise buildings to avoid injuries caused by falling stones. For external wall cladding of buildings located in high pedestrian traffic zones, travertine with high wear resistance is selected to preserve the surface integrity for a prolonged period. All of Yushi Stone’s Travertine passed physical property tests, and the treated travertine guarantees superior performance and reliability for external wall cladding projects.
Choose Suitable Surface Finishes
Choosing the right surface finish for travertine wall cladding is crucial for maximizing wall cladding effectiveness. For example, Yushi Stone offers travertine surface finishes such as honed, polished, tumbled, and brushed, each providing different practical and aesthetic values. For example, honed travertine is matte and has good anti-slip, making it ideal for building courtyard and low-rise villa courtyard exterior walls; polished travertine, in addition to its stunning visual and high gloss, is best for luxury hotel and commercial building main facades; and tumbled travertine has a textured finish with great resistance to weather, making it suitable for outdoor gardens and pool-side wall cladding. When it comes to choosing surface finishes for wall cladding, Yushi Stone offers balanced combination of aesthetic and practical values.
