Natural Stone Treatments
The treatment of natural stone
The treatment of natural stone is essential to protect this porous material against stains and daily wear, whether used for flooring, sinks, or facades. Here’s a summary of the steps and methods for treatment:
Importance of treatment
Natural stone is inherently porous, making it vulnerable to water and grease stains. The treatment aims to protect it from these types of soiling.
Types of protection
- Water-repellent: protects the stone against water stains.
- Oil-repellent: protects against greasy stains.
Treatment products
- Specific products are available for both indoor and outdoor use, tailored to the surface being treated.
- Water-based treatments are preferred for their environmental friendliness, including products such as:
- Giordex Naturel Adouci
- Giordex Naturel Brut
- Giordex HP 23 (more economical and less oil-repellent).
Treating natural stone is essential to preserve its integrity and appearance over time, using environmentally friendly products suitable for each type of surface.
