Marble Flooring

Marble is a non-foliated metamorphic rock resulting from the metamorphism of limestone, composed mostly of calcite. It is extensively used in flooring applications. The word "marble" is colloquially used to refer to many other stones that are capable of taking a high polish. While marble has good stain resistance, marble is more porous than granite. Certain marbles can stain quite readily. Common household liquids such as orange juice, nail polish remover, shampoo, and even water can cause serious stains in certain marbles. We recommend the use of neutral pH breathable sealers for marble.
