Clean using a soft cloth and a pH-neutral stone cleaner. Avoid acidic or abrasive products including vinegar, lemon-based cleaners and aggressive descalers.
Periodic sealing may be required depending on the finish, application and frequency of use. Spills should be wiped quickly to reduce the risk of staining.
Professional stone installation is recommended.
Slabs should ideally be dry-laid before installation to coordinate veining.
Ensure substrates can support the weight of natural stone.
Sealing requirements should be confirmed before installation.
Extra material may be required when book-matching or controlling vein direction.

Marble is a natural and exceptionally long-lasting material, but quarrying, processing and international transportation can contribute significantly to its environmental impact. Reclaimed stone, responsible sourcing and locally available alternatives can reduce this impact.
