Can Italy's Bianco Lasa Striato Marble be used exterior applications in very windy climates?
Bianco Lasa Striato Marble is a high-quality marble with a distinctive white color and striated pattern. While it is commonly used in interior applications such as floors, walls, countertops, and backsplashes, its suitability for exterior applications in very windy climates may depend on various factors. Marble is generally considered a durable and long-lasting natural stone. However, it is important to note that marble is a softer stone compared to granite or other types of stone commonly used for exterior applications. This means that it may be more prone to chipping, scratching, and weathering over time when exposed to harsh outdoor conditions. In very windy climates, the marbles surface may be subject to abrasion from blowing sand, dust, and debris. These abrasive particles can cause weathering and erosion, which may result in a loss of the marbles polished finish or even structural damage over time. The severity of the windy climate, frequency of strong wind gusts, and the specific location where the marble will be installed will also influence its suitability. To enhance the resistance of Bianco Lasa Striato Marble to exterior applications in very windy climates, it is recommended to apply a protective sealant or coating. This can help to minimize the effects of wind-driven particles and reduce the potential for damage. Regular maintenance and cleaning will also be necessary to preserve the marbles appearance and durability. Ultimately, consulting with a professional stone supplier, architect, or contractor with experience in exterior applications will provide the most accurate advice for your specific project and location. They can assess the local climatic conditions and the specific requirements of your project to determine if Bianco Lasa Striato Marble is a suitable choice for your exterior application in a very windy climate.
