Travertine is the ideal material to be used around swimming pools. It has a good level of slip resistance due to it being a slightly porous material which helps draw water away from the surface and into the stone itself. It stays cool in hot temperatures and when tumbled can be very soft to the touch. With its extremely attractive appearance, travertine is the perfect choice for pool copings and surrounds.
The tumbled finish is an especially popular choice around swimming pools due to its soft edges and smooth surface finish. Travertine pool copings and paving slabs are available in the matching finish to help create a seamless link between pool and the surrounding garden.
