Dreaming of transforming your backyard, courtyard, or patio with a timeless, natural look? Then travertine pavers may be your ideal choice of stone!
For centuries, travertine was used as a building material across Ancient Europe and Italy. It has now become increasingly popular for exterior travertine paving projects and its unique worn look also makes a beautiful and decorative stone.
Travertine is a light-coloured, calcite-based stone formed from mineral springs. It is typically found in limestone caves or at the mouth of hot springs.
Known for its strong and durable nature, travertine stone pavers are excellent for indoor and outdoor applications. We’re talking driveways and commercial spaces where long-lasting materials are essential.
Our travertine tiles Sydney collection comes in shades of light-coloured stone, including cream. And as a light-coloured stone, it’s surprisingly easy on the eyes – even on the brightest days! Whether you’re paving a grand driveway or adding charm to a quaint garden path, our selection ensures something to fit every design vision.
Travertine pavers are strong, durable, and low-maintenance pavers. You can also have high-density, first-grade travertine pavers laid on a sand base. However, in saying this, it is better to lay them on a sand-cement base rather than a river-sand bed, as this will help you grout the joints in between the stones.
Given its desert climate, temperatures in Australia can reach highs of 40 degrees Celsius and more. Travertine pavers excel in this regard, maintaining a cool temperature even under direct sunlight. So, they’re excellent for walkways, patios, and especially outdoor travertine pavers around pool areas.
Another benefit of travertine is that it doesn’t fade. These pavers have a consistent colour variation and thickness. As already mentioned, they’re ideal for a hot climate. On the flip side, they can also withstand freezing temperatures without cracking under the pressure of changing climates.
As with all natural stones, sealing your travertine pavers is recommended. This will help increase the stone’s longevity by protecting it from environmental factors and preventing stains from penetrating it.
While some people want to maintain a natural look for their travertine pavers and avoid grouting them, this can become problematic as the spaces between stones can collect dirt. As it’s a natural stone, this can be tough to clean and can attract mould and mildew. As such, to maintain your paver’s cleanliness and aesthetic, it’s best to grout the paver joints and the entire paver.
For areas like pool sides, where slip resistance is key, opt for “B” grade travertine pool pavers, which are less slippery compared to standard tumbled travertine. Our “Wet Pendulum Test” ensures that the stones meet safety standards, making them a wise choice for wet areas. Tumbled Travertine has a P3 rating, which isn’t the best for wet surfaces.
Whether you’re upgrading or building a patio, terrace or patio area, our travertine pavers will give your home, that luxurious look you’ve always wanted.

Travertine pavers are made from blocks of travertine, a calcite-based, sedimentary stone typically found in earth deposits near mineral springs. Minerals and other substances seep into the deposit, giving each rock piece a unique appearance with an array of colours and patterns. Travertine pavers are available in various sizes.
Travertine pavers offer a timeless and natural look to any area in your home. They also stay cool under extreme heat, making them perfect for Sydney’s climate. They’re a fantastic choice for adding elegance and functionality to any outdoor space.
Keeping travertine clean is easy. As they have a pitted surface, travertine tiles easily collect dirt within them. This is why we recommend sweeping and mopping the pavers using warm water mixed with a mild, non-abrasive detergent to keep them clean. In the case of tough stains, a non-acidic poultice powder can do the trick.
Like all natural pavers, we recommend sealing your travertine stones to prevent surface staining and damage. If you use a good quality sealant, travertine pavers require resealing every 6 years. Armstone offers a wide selection of sealers, cleaners and stain removers for travertine pavers.
