Can Egypt's Khaiber Limestone be used exterior applications in very dusty climates?
Egypts Khaiber Limestone can be used in exterior applications in dusty climates, but certain considerations need to be taken into account. Limestone is a natural stone which is renowned for its durability and resistance to various elements. However, dusty climates can pose some challenges for its use in exterior applications. The fine dust particles in the air can settle on the surface of the limestone, leading to a buildup that may require regular cleaning to maintain its aesthetic appeal.
