The Science of Stone Protection
Marble is a metamorphic rock that starts life as limestone. Because it is composed of calcium carbonate, it is highly sensitive to acidic substances. To preserve its luxury appearance, you must use a high-performance chemical barrier.
Our Recommended Sealer
For the ultimate protection against permanent staining, we recommend Dry-Treat Stain-Stop. Unlike standard sealers, this premium impregnator penetrates deep into the stone's pores to provide a permanent, invisible bond.

For marble floors, sand and grit are primary scratch hazards. We recommend a "shoes-off" policy and professional-grade entrance matting. For mopping, use a pH-neutral stone soap to ensure the crystalline structure of the marble remains intact.
IntMarble Expert Technical Tip
"When installing white marble, always use a white S2 flexible adhesive. Standard grey adhesives can 'bleed' through the porous structure, causing permanent dark patches that cannot be cleaned away."
Managing Kitchen & Bathroom Surfaces
Hard water can lead to mineral deposits in shower areas. We recommend using a squeegee after every shower and ensuring bathrooms are well-ventilated. In kitchens, use trays and coasters to store oils and vinegars to prevent accidental chemical etching.
