Discover our entire range of Premium quality Travertine stone available in Tiles, Pavers, Cobblestone, Crazy Pavers, Pool Coping & Treads. Stone Planet brings luxury and lifelong durability to your Australian Homes & building Projects.
Stone Planet is a leading importer and wholesale supplier of Travertine tiles and pavers across Australia. We supply trade and retail customers residing or working in Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne, and nearby suburbs. Sourced directly from our own quarrying and processing network, this sedimentary limestone carries its own subtle veins, character, and fibrous texture.
Stone Planet stocks natural Travertine tiles and pavers in every format a project needs –stone tiles, outdoor pavers, pool coping, cobblestones, crazy pavers, and French pattern sets. Builders, landscapers, architects, and homeowners can buy an entire project supply from one supplier instead of chasing multiple yards to match the stone.
Because we import in bulk and grade the stone ourselves, we hold one of the largest wholesale ranges of Travertine in the country. This is what lets us price outdoor Travertine pavers and tiles competitively for both a single courtyard and a big residential development. We work with our own quarry partners overseas to bring in Travertine tiles and pavers at wholesale volume, then warehouse that stock in Australia so trade buyers and homeowners in Sydney, Brisbane, and Melbourne get consistent colour batches instead of mismatched pallets.
This matters more than most suppliers admit. A builder ordering Travertine paving stone for forty lots in an estate cannot afford colour drift between pallet three and pallet twelve, and a homeowner extending a pool deck two years later needs the same batch reference to still be available. Buying Travertine tiles and pavers from a wholesaler with import control, rather than a showroom reselling whatever landed that month, is what protects a project’s finish from start to completion. Buying Natural Travertine Pavers and Tiles from Stone Planet means investing in a lifetime flooring solution.

Many suppliers offer travertine, but not all travertine is the same. At Stone Planet, we exclusively stock Premium Grade Travertine. What does this mean for you? Commercial-grade travertine often features large, unpredictable holes that require heavy chemical filling. This leaves the stone prone to cracking. Our premium grade is naturally denser, features tighter pores, and undergoes strict quality control. This guarantees stronger structural integrity, a smoother finish, and a more consistent colour palette across your entire project.
Stone Planet does not stock Travertine as a single flat product. We cut and finish it into the formats a real build calls for:
Every format above ships in the same colour range, so a courtyard built with French pattern Travertine pavers can be finished with matching pool coping and stair treads without a colour mismatch creeping in at the edges.
We stock a variety of dimensions to meet strict project deadlines and design layouts:
While they share the same breathtaking natural beauty, tiles and pavers serve different structural purposes.
| Feature | Travertine Tiles | Travertine Pavers |
| Standard Thickness | 12mm – 15mm | 30mm |
| Primary Usage Application area | living spaces, concrete balconies, Internal flooring, wall cladding, covered alfresco | External paving, driveways, pool decks garden patios |
| Installation Base/substrate | Direct glue-down onto a structurally sound concrete slab | Flexible base of compacted crushed rock and paving sand. |
| Common Surface Finish | Honed & Filled (Smooth and easy to mop) | Tumbled & Unfilled (High grip and textured) |
| Weight Capacity | Light to moderate residential foot traffic | Heavy outdoor traffic and outdoor furniture loads |
Two travertine blocks are never identical. This is the hallmark of genuine natural stone. Stone Planet offers a sophisticated spectrum of earth-derived shades to match your specific interior or exterior flooring colour palettes:
Travertine comes in two primary finishes, each tailored to specific environments:
Architects and designers agree that Travertine Tiles and Pavers are best for Residential and Commercial Projects across Australia. Let us discuss a few application areas where travertine can be installed:
Using Travertine for Indoor Flooring creates an illusion of boundless space. Inside the home, Travertine bathroom Tiles and Pavers transform ordinary en-suites into luxurious, spa-like retreats. A honed and filled finish is the standard choice here because it resists everyday marks and wipes clean without holding grime in open pores, while still keeping the natural movement that separates stone from a printed porcelain lookalike. Because the stone is exceptionally durable, Travertine Kitchen Pavers and Tiles resist heavy impacts, handle heavy foot traffic easily, and bring immense organic warmth that complements both ultra-modern stone benchtops and classic timber cabinetry.
Travertine Tiles and Pavers for Outdoor Paving from Stone Planet combats the harsh Australian climate. They remain remarkably cool under the scorching sun, protecting bare feet.
When you install the Outdoor Travertine Tiles and Pavers in your backyard, you invest in a Travertine paving stone that will not warp, fade, or crack under UV pressure.
Travertine works as flooring for indoor and outdoor areas from the same colour palette, which is why so many Sydney, Brisbane, and Melbourne builds use 12mm Travertine tiles inside and 30mm Travertine pavers outside in the identical shade. Planning that thickness difference at the design stage, not after the slab is poured, keeps door thresholds and floor levels correct without last-minute packers or step-downs.
Safety is paramount around water. Our Travertine Pool Tiles and Pavers feature an unfilled, honed, and tumbled surface that provides a naturally high friction coefficient, ensuring excellent slip resistance. Pair your paving with our Stone Planet’s Travertine Pool Coping Tiles to create a flawless, safe, and breathtaking poolside oasis.
Maintaining Travertine is not challenging if you follow certain steps and remembers the do’s and don’ts. Below are the steps to maintain and clean Travertine to make sure they last for a long time and stays beautiful:
Because Travertine is a porous sedimentary stone, sealing is the most critical step in protecting the stone against the Australian weather extremities and household spills.
Daily care for Travertine is straightforward but requires the right chemistry to avoid damaging the stone’s surface.
To protect the lifespan of your Travertine, ensure you and your cleaning contractors avoid the following:
| Avoid | The Reason Why |
| Acidic Cleaners | Vinegar and bleach chemically “eat” the calcium in the stone, causing permanent white dull spots (etching). |
| Abrasive Tools | Steel wool and scouring pads will destroy the surface finish of Travertine. |
| Generic Sealers | Standard acrylic sealers can trap moisture inside the stone, leading to “spalling” or “whitewash” effects. |
| High-Pressure Blasting | Excessive pressure can open the natural pits and voids, making the stone harder to clean over time. |
From luxury coastal residential renovations to expansive public plazas, Travertine Tiles and Pavers are best for Residential and Commercial Projects across Australia. Whether you intend to Buy Travertine Tiles and pavers in Sydney or require large-volume site drop-offs in Melbourne or Brisbane, our commercial team ensures your stone meets exact technical specifications, density ratings, and timely project delivery schedules.
We at Stone Planet supply:
Not at all. In fact, Travertine is currently one of the most sought-after natural stones in Australia for 2026. However, the way Australians are using it has evolved. In 2026, we are seeing a shift away from the shiny, dark-orange tones of the past toward a much more modern, organic look.
Here is why Travertine is still a top choice for Australian landscaping:
Travertine isn’t just in style—it’s a premium building material that defines the high-end Australian homes and commercial spaces in 2026. Get your Travertine at Stone Planet Now!
No, and this is one of its biggest advantages of travertine tiles and pavers. They lack metallic compounds and retains a naturally cool temperature underfoot even during blistering Australian heatwaves. You can walk barefoot on a travertine pool deck in the middle of summer without burning your feet.
Yes. Because travertine is a porous natural stone, you must apply a high-quality penetrating sealer after installation. Sealing protects the stone from accidental stains, prevents dirt from settling deep into the pores, and defends against salt attack if you have a saltwater pool.
Stone Planet Expert Tip: For the best results in Australian homes, we recommend applying a premium sealer every 1 to 2 years. If water stops beading on the surface, it is time for a fresh coat.
No. Unlike dyed concrete or synthetic materials, the earthy colours of travertine are 100% natural. They come out of the Earth and just cut to your requested size. The sun will not bleach or fade the stone
Travertine naturally develops open pockets and voids during its formation. In fact, travertine tiles and pavers are famous for their naturally occurring holes giving it a rustic yet traditional look. For indoor spaces, we fill these voids with a durable, colour matching stone resin before honing the surface completely smooth. This prevents dirt and moisture from getting trapped inside. For outdoor spaces, we leave the stone unfilled and tumble the edges. This keeps the natural holes of the stone exposed, maximizing slip resistance and traction when wet.
Yes. While 30mm pavers are thick enough to be laid flexibly on a compacted crushed rock and sand base, you can also install them over an existing concrete slab. In this scenario, your installer will use a premium, flexible outdoor stone adhesive to bond the pavers securely to the concrete substrate.
For a seamless, high-end look, select a grout color that closely matches the primary tone of the stone (e.g., light ivory grout for Ivory Travertine or a beige grout for Classic travertine). If you are installing an unfilled outdoor stone and want to emphasize its rustic, modular character, then select a slightly contrasting neutral grout or use a fine paving sand to lock the joints.
No, provided it is treated correctly. Our premium Turkish travertine handles pool environments beautifully. However, for saltwater swimming pools, we highly recommend dip-sealing the pavers with an impregnating sealer prior to installation. This fully seals the stone from all angles, preventing salt crystallization from causing surface efflorescence or structural wear over time. In short, seal before installation and seal after installation. Then reseal after a few years, depending on usage.
In the Australian market, travertine sits in the mid to high range category. While it costs slightly more than synthetic, printed porcelain tiles, it delivers significantly higher property value and longevity.
Pricing depends heavily on the "Grade" (structural density and minimal large pores). Expect to pay between $36–$49/sqm for commercial grade, $55–$69/sqm for standard grade, and $69–$120/sqm for premium/elite/ultra-premium grades.
Travertine belongs to the limestone family. While it is subjected to heat and pressure similar to marble, it forms specifically in terrestrial hot springs, giving it a unique geological classification and its signature porous or fibrous-like texture.
Absolutely not. Travertine remains one of the most highly demanded natural stones in 2026. However, design trends have shifted. Instead of the shiny, orange-toned stones popular decades ago, modern Australian architecture heavily favors earthy, organic, and matte finishes. Shades like Silver Grey and Premium Ivory are currently dominating the Modern Coastal and architectural movements.
Yes, Travertine is a stylish and durable choice for residential driveways, provided you use the correct format for standard passenger vehicles. To ensure your Travertine driveway performs well in the Australian climate, keep these Stone Planet expert guidelines in mind:
• Use 30mm Pavers: Never use thin 12mm tiles for a driveway. You must use 30mm thick Travertine pavers laid on a reinforced concrete base to handle the weight of standard cars and SUVs without cracking.
• Residential Use Only (No Heavy Loads): While Travertine is incredibly strong for family homes, it is not designed for heavy industrial loads. Avoid using it in areas accessed by heavy trucks, delivery lorries, or high-tonnage machinery, as these can exceed the stone's natural flexural strength.
• Natural Slip Resistance: We recommend a honed and unfilled finish. This provides an "organic" grip that is safe for both tires and pedestrians, especially during wet Australian winters.
While Travertine is a premium and highly durable choice for Australian homes, it is important to understand its natural characteristics to ensure it’s the right fit for your lifestyle. Here are the primary considerations when choosing a Travertine:
• Susceptibility to Acid Etching: Travertine is sensitive to acidic substances. Spills from lemon juice, vinegar, or wine, or even harsh supermarket bathroom cleaners, can chemically react with the stone. This leaves a permanent dull spot known as an etch mark.
• Naturally Porous Structure: Travertine is full of tiny pores and voids. If left unsealed, it can act like a sponge, absorbing liquids that lead to deep-seated stains. Unsealed stone can also be prone to salt-attack or mold in damp areas.
• Requires Periodic Maintenance: Unlike porcelain or ceramic, Travertine is not a fit and forget material. To keep it looking its best, you will need to apply a penetrating sealer every few years and use only pH-neutral cleaners.
• Variation in Appearance: Because it is 100% natural, there is significant variation in color and veining between batches. This isn't the fault, but if you are looking for a perfectly uniform, identical look, a natural stone may not be your first choice.
Stone Planet Expert Tip: Most of these disadvantages are easily managed by choosing a Honed and Filled finish for indoors (to prevent dirt trapping) and a Honed Unfilled & Tumbled finish for outdoors with a high quality Sealer for all areas.
Stone Planet supplies to both. Our warehouse holds wholesale volume for builders and commercial projects and the same stock is available in smaller quantities for a single home renovation
Yes. At Stone Planet, we can provide matching coping, pavers, and treads in one batch to avoid the major color variation that happens when these are sourced from separate suppliers over different months
A showroom typically buys smaller parcels from various importers and resells what's in stock that month. As the Largest importer of Natural Stone Travertine Tiles & Pavers, Stone Planet controls batch consistency, holds larger volume for trade orders, and can quote commercial jobs at wholesale rates that a retail-only showroom generally can't match
Yes, Stone Planet can freight to regional areas across Australia on pallets. Delivery timing and cost depend on the order size and destination, so our team confirms this at the quote stage
