Covelano White | OPP15

Covelano marble is extracted in Val Venosta in the province of Bolzano and is the hardest white marble in the world.

It has a white background with different shades of veins. Its highly crystalline structure, with an average 98% of calcium carbonate, make it an extremely pure marble.
Its appearance is due to the unique shine and lively brilliance typical of Skaleonder crystals.

The unique and extremely pure structure minimizes water absorption, giving the Covelano White Marble its famous resistance to bad weather and frost.

The small crystals of this precious marble, perfectly agglomerated, are made of a homogeneous grain, which not only makes
it extremely solid and resistant to pressure, but also translucent. This marble is very porous and it is made of different components which absorbe the polishing in different ways. The result is a polished effect that is not homogeneous.

We suggest to order the polyester treatment to avoid this effect.
In fact, on demand, marble tops can be coated with polyester treatment, which consists in a painting process similar to the process that wooden furniture is submitted to, covering
any possible micro hole, sealing, filling, thus making the marble uniform and smooth, also in the painting.
