🧱 Why Choose Lava Stone?
Durability Meets Style
Lava stone is formed from cooled volcanic lava, making it exceptionally strong and thermally stable. These characteristics make it especially well-suited for harsh outdoor conditions, including high foot traffic, extreme weather, and poolside environments.
Heat-Resistant & Comfortable Underfoot
Unlike other stone types, lava stone pavers do not absorb heat, making them a safe and comfortable option for pool decks and sun-exposed areas. This makes lava stone flooring an ideal choice for outdoor terraces and pool finishes where staying cool matters.
Porosity & Sealing
Since natural lava stones are porous, it’s important to use the correct sealers—especially in saltwater or freeze-thaw environments. Our Unileck lava stones are pre-treated to resist moisture absorption, reducing the risk of cracking, discoloration, and mold.
Salt-Tested for Seawater Use
High-quality lava stones are salt-tested and proven to perform well even in seawater basins. If properly tested and installed, lava stone can be twice as durable as travertine, making it a superior option for long-lasting poolside luxury.
🛠️ Installation Tips
No matter the stone quality, professional installation is crucial. Some experts recommend using woven geotextile mats instead of gravel foundations to improve drainage and stability. Due to its irregular shape and natural texture, custom fitting on-site may be necessary—especially for lava stone tile patios.
⚠️ Important Considerations
- Lava stone, while stylish, can be very porous if not sealed properly. Always opt for 30mm thick, dip-sealed tiles for better durability in outdoor settings.
- If not maintained or installed correctly, porous lava stone tiles can attract mold and show discoloration over time.
- Compared to travertine, lava stone has a smoother, more consistent appearance, which is ideal for modern outdoor designs.
