Can Iran's Ghorveh White Onyx be used exterior applications in very rainy climates?
While Irans Ghorveh White Onyx is a beautiful and high-quality stone, it may not be the best choice for exterior applications in very rainy climates. Onyx is a delicate and relatively soft stone compared to other natural stones like granite or marble. It is more prone to damage from weathering and moisture. In very rainy climates, the constant exposure to water and moisture can lead to several issues with onyx. Firstly, the stone is porous and can absorb water, which can lead to discoloration, staining, and the growth of mold or algae. Additionally, the expansion and contraction caused by the freeze-thaw cycle in cold and wet climates can cause the onyx to crack or chip over time. If you are looking for a stone for exterior applications in very rainy climates, it is recommended to opt for a more durable and weather-resistant stone, such as granite or a high-quality porcelain tile specifically designed for outdoor use. These materials have higher resistance to moisture, staining, and temperature changes, making them more suitable for exterior applications in such climates.
