Canadian Blue - natural blue marble

Technical characteristics of Canadian Blue

Geologically it is a metamorphic sedimentary rock with a predominantly carbonate composition (calcite and dolomite). Being a strictly carbonate matrix material, it is highly sensitive to food and chemical acids (such as lemon, vinegar, wine, juices and anti-limescale detergents) and is subject to immediate clouding or corrosion when exposed to acidic substances. It has good structural compactness; however, due to its fine texture and chromatic delicacy, the slabs benefit from the usual vacuum resining and back screening processes during processing. For use in indoor settings in contact with water or staining substances, it requires meticulous protective hydro-oil-repellent sealing.

Applications in design

– vertical paneling and accent walls: an excellent choice for creating wall walls, wood paneling, and paneling in luxury private residences, high-end hotels, and dramatic bathhouses.

– bookmatch compositions: the delicacy of the celestial and gray hues lends itself beautifully to the mirrored pose to create ethereal and visually striking wall scenes.

– designer bathroom and vanity rooms: extremely popular for refined vanity tops, bathtub linings and shower walls (after applying suitable stain-resistant protective treatments).

– custom furniture and design elements: perfect for making coffee table tops, consoles, small decorative elements and sophisticated architectural details.
