Porous vs Non-Porous Natural Stones

Every natural stone is porous, and has uncountable small pores throughout their surface. This is a fundamental trait of natural stones. If your natural stone doesn’t seem to have pores, it is actually not a natural stone.

However, certain natural stones possess a distinct absence of pores. There are primarily two reasons. Firstly, it could be a natural stone-look tile. Secondly, the stone tile might have undergone a surface finish that effectively seals its pores.

This blog aims to elucidate the key differentiating factors porous and non-porous natural stone tiles:

Porous Stones –

Porous stones are completely natural. They are just sliced from natural stone block and haven’t gone through any surface treatment. Their surface is rough with slight up and down areas.

You should avoid using porous stone tiles in high-traffic areas, bathrooms, and kitchens, as they absorb water, dirt, and debris, and tend to stain and get damaged easily. Porous stones are also a reason for mold and bacteria growth.

Porous stones require more care post installation.

Floors with porous and unmaintained natural stones isn’t always a safe and hygienic place for your kids to play.

Non-Porous Stones –

Non-porous stone tiles have their pores sealed by a transparent yet strong surface finish.

With a smooth surface and no open pores, these tiles offer zero vulnerability to staining and chipping.

Non-porous natural stone tiles are super-easy to clean and maintain.

These stones don’t allow the presence of bacteria and mold on their surface.
