Maintenance and Considerations for Beige Sandstone Slabs

Avoid Long-Term Coverage with Carpets & Debris

To maintain the breathability of beige sandstone slabs, avoid covering them with carpets or debris for long periods. When the stone is unable to release moisture through its pores, excessive water accumulation can lead to pathological issues, such as discoloration or deterioration.

If carpets or debris must be placed, ensure they are regularly moved and cleaned to prevent moisture buildup.

Protective Treatment for Beige Sandstone Slabs

To prevent deterioration, ease cleaning, and enhance color, applying a protective agent is highly recommended. This treatment helps:

• Reduce water penetration
• Enhance color vibrancy
• Extend the stone's lifespan

One notable example is red sandalwood wood grain beige sandstone slabs, which exhibit a natural wood-like pattern formed through the re-precipitation of calcium carbonate. Unlike typical sandstone, this variety falls under generalized marble due to its superior physical and chemical properties.

Key Features of Red Sandalwood Wood Grain Beige Sandstone

• Divided into large wood grain and fine grain based on texture.
• Classified as cloud grain or wood grain depending on cutting methods.
• Radiation-free natural stone, containing trace elements beneficial to health.
• Crystal face care is the most effective, long-lasting, and economical maintenance method.

Challenges of Sandstone & Travertine in Curtain Walls

Both sandstone and travertine are sedimentary rocks with:

• Low strength
• High water absorption
• Poor weather resistance

These properties make them less than ideal for stone curtain wall panels. However, their unique textures and colors make them a popular choice among architects. Thus, selecting and treating these materials properly is crucial to ensuring safety and longevity.

Variability in Sandstone Strength & Absorption

Sandstone properties vary significantly depending on geographic origin:

• Australian yellow sandstone & Italian yellow sandstone – May have a flexural strength of less than 3MPa.
• Sichuan Longchang green sandstone – Comparable to a whetstone, with a flexural strength exceeding 10MPa, similar to granite.

Similarly, water absorption rates fluctuate:

• Some dense sandstones – Less than 2.5% absorption rate.
• Others – Exceed 6% absorption rate, making them prone to softening.

Potential Risks of High-Water-Absorption Sandstones

• Red sandstones from Sichuan & Guangdong can soften after absorbing water.
• Some red sandstones can become muddy when exposed to moisture for prolonged periods.

For such cases, reinforced measures are necessary if they must be used in curtain walls.
