What is the most suitable natural stone to cover a kitchen counter and a kitchen floor?
Granite, because it is more resistant and because it is used traditionally.
But you do not necessarily have to use granite if you like a marble, a travertine or another natural stone you can use.
For example a white marble top is much more delicate than a granite, more susceptible to oil stains, etc., but very beautiful and decorates much more than a granite, produces another very different feeling, although they will age faster than a granite.
The same concept is valid for floors and coatings, that is, if you like marble more because it is more elegant and decorates much more, use the marble taking more care in everyday use and cleaning immediately if you drop oil, Some other product. Neither should be obsessed with cleaning, just take some small precautions and care without exaggerating.

How long can a marble or natural stone coating last?
The durability of a natural stone refers to its resistance to the action of atmospheric agents, chemical, physical and organic action.
Atmospheric agents represented by wind, humidity, rain, temperature, fog, smog, to which we must sometimes add, biological agents (fungi, lichens, lower organisms), these exercise on the surface of natural stones type actions Physical rather than chemical.
Solar radiation and cold (ice) subject the natural stones to thermal cycles with frequent presence of ice-thaw.
All these factors act simultaneously to put to hard test the resistance of a material and determining definitively the effective duration of the natural stone in operation or in work.
