Как вам стало известно из предыдущей информации основной сферой деятельности нашей фирмы является работы с природным камнем в сфере строительства. Этот вид деятельности неслучайно выбран нами, так как природный камень применяется в Турции практически во всех видах строительства. Турция богата запасами природного камня, а следовательно работа есть всегда.
На данной странице я постараюсь изложить информацию о природном камне, его использовании и как мы относимся к нему.
Кроме проведения строительных работ непосредственно на объекте, мы готовы поставить натуральный природный камень в любую точку мира.
Использование натурального камня, пожалуй, лучшее решение в сфере отделки на сегодняшний день. Долговечный, прочный, износоустойчивый, неприхотливый к перепадам уровня влажности и температур, но при этом требующий пристального внимания при подборе и эксплуатации, натуральный камень является самым удачным материалом для воплощения любых, даже самых смелых, дизайнерских идей. Применяя натуральный камень, вы придадите особенность и индивидуальность любому объекту.
Итак, общую информацию о природных камнях я разместил под этим разделом:

About stones. What are the types of natural stone?There are various types of natural stone used in construction (cladding) and as decoration. The most famous and frequently used of them are marble, granite, travertine, white stone and slate.
-
Where does natural stone come from?Mountains are the main source of natural stone. However, this source can be the channels of rivers and the sea. One of the well-known marbles from sea sources is "MARMARA" marble, which is distinguished by a pattern in the form of a sandy seabed.
-
Inside natural stones, veins and / or sparkles are visible - what is it?Each type of natural stone contains minerals characteristic of a particular area where these stones are mined. In this regard, they have a different structure and pattern.
-
Is one type of natural stone better than another? What is the best natural stone?Each of the natural stones has specific properties that give it a characteristic greater hardness, softness or brilliance. Depending on the application, some types of natural stones are preferred over other types. For example, white stone (limestone) floor tiles are not suitable for high traffic areas, as they will wear out quickly. However, it is an excellent choice for use in wall cladding. Therefore, when choosing a natural stone, it is necessary to focus on the scope of its application. Let's just say that in each case it is necessary to make an individual decision about which stone will be better. As a rule, a specialist will help you choose. On the photo in order: travertine, marble, granite.
-
Could it be that the natural stone of one country is better than the natural stone of another country?There is an opinion among the people that some countries produce natural stone better than other countries. This is fundamentally wrong. Natural stones are generated by nature itself, and even in one quarry, a stone can and will differ, since it is not a homogeneous mass. Even when sawn into a block, only a high-class specialist can see how it will be. The beauty of natural stone is revealed by the production process. Only manufacturers of the marble industry with modern production facilities and specialists process and produce high-quality natural stone. In the video below, marble from different deposits, sawn into slabs at one enterprise. Visually, it differs only in color and pattern. For specific applications, a specialist should be consulted.
-
What does different types of surfaces mean? What difference exists between them?After sawing the blocks into slabs, the working surface of natural stone is processed. The main processing takes place on sandblasting equipment. The size of the grains and/or longer sandblasting gives the stone a shiny and polished appearance. Less painstaking use of sandblasting equipment will give the stone a more natural look. The degree of surface treatment is the design choice of the master or the order of the client. Recently, it has been fashionable to use well-polished surfaces. This treatment, in comparison with the treatment that gives a natural look, is considered "conditionally better" since over time it allows you to better preserve the surface from wear and aging In some stones, such as travertine, natural pores (holes) form as a result of the settling of minerals. These voids and holes are left without fillers in order to create a more natural look on the cladding. At the request of the client, voids can be filled by the manufacturer or can be filled by builders directly during grouting. The most common types of edges are listed below: from coarse to fine in magnifying form natural cracks with broken edges pavement type aging bevelled bevelled In more detail, the masters will explain to you directly at the stone.

What are the advantages of natural stone over artificial stone?Have you seen a plastic surface that looks great after years of use? The same is true with artificial stone. After some time, under one or another influence, it loses its qualities and cannot be returned to its previous form. Natural stone is natural, as practice shows, it does not lose its beauty even after a thousand years. In addition, if for any reason it begins to age, then a polishing specialist can bring it back to life, which cannot be done with artificial stone (this applies to granite and marble). Man-made stones repeat themselves all the time (produced on the assembly line), that is, they do not have originality and their own pattern, unlike natural stone. Natural stones are environmentally friendly, unlike artificial ones created with the help of chemistry. Harm and benefit from the use of this kind of chemistry to mankind has yet to be studied. I think that at this stage of time it is not worth believing the statements of "scientists" speaking for advertising purposes. In addition to all of the above, natural stones in some cases do not require constant care. An example of natural stone is the Lincoln Monument and/or the Egyptian pyramids, which after so many years still look great. At the end of time, natural stone can be processed and it will be like "new". In the photo, the floor is more than 10 years old before and after processing. I do not think that it is also possible to process artificial stone.
-
What are the standard dimensions of tiles for cladding and what is its thickness?Basically, tiles are made in sizes from 10x10 cm to 60x60 cm. But in fact, the dimensions of natural stone are made to order of the client of any size and thickness, depending on the scope of application. Only our specialist will help you with this question in the best way during the ordering process. In the video, the process of cutting a marble block into slabs. This is probably the most powerful sawing machine I have ever seen.
-
What stones are decorative? What is the purpose of this stone?Decorative stone is used to cover any surface with natural stone. In order to make an edge for the clock on the wall, you can use the trim. In order to separate the hall from the kitchen, you can use bordering. Together with mosaics, platbands and edging (borders), decoration possibilities increase.
-
What makes a stone "exotic"?Exotic stones are mined and brought from various parts of the world, usually remote. Such stones require special attention and care when processing. Due to weather conditions, seasonal restrictions, transport restrictions, such stones are found in small (limited) quantities in the world, which is why they are called exotic.
-
What is the temperature of the stone? What are the options for heating under stones?Mostly natural stones insulate both heat and cold. For example, at room temperature they have a lower temperature. In the case of underfloor heating, problems with heat transfer may occur, therefore, in such cases, the use of natural stone should be consulted.specialist.
-
What determines the price of natural stone, the simpler the stone, the cheaper?That's not entirely true. As a rule, the price of natural stone depends on the capacity of the stone quarry in which it is mined, the volume of production and processing. According to the laws of the market, along with an increase in production, the price also decreases. For example, some of the best stones in the world, such as travertine, are cheaper due to the presence of large reserves in the world.
-
What tones of natural stone to use, dark or light, is there a significant difference?It's a matter of taste. Basically, light colors are used in places where there will be less natural light. Dark colors are used in well-lit rooms. But in fact, this is a question purely for your designer. On the first video, granite in slabs and its colors. On the second video, mosaic tiles made of natural marble. In Turkey, they are made in a small number of enterprises. For some reason, they are now in demand in the USA. It shows how different colors of marble can play in combinations.
