Can Italy's Calacatta Granviola Marble be used exterior applications in very dusty climates?
Calacatta Granviola Marble is a type of marble that is primarily used for interior applications, such as countertops, flooring, and wall cladding. While it can be used in some exterior applications, it is generally not recommended for use in very dusty climates. Marble is a natural stone and is porous in nature, which means it can absorb moisture and particles from the environment. In dusty climates, the fine dust particles can settle on the surface of the marble, potentially causing discoloration, staining, or erosion over time. Additionally, exposure to harsh weather conditions, including extreme heat, frost, and heavy rain, can also affect the durability and appearance of the marble. The constant exposure to these elements can cause fading, etching, and deterioration of the marble. If you are considering using Calacatta Granviola Marble for an exterior application in a very dusty climate, it is important to properly seal the marble and regularly maintain and clean the surface to prevent dust buildup. However, it is generally advisable to choose a more durable and suitable material, such as granite or engineered quartz, for exterior applications in dusty climates.
