Flooring in bathrooms and toilets must meet high standards — it needs to be water-resistant, slip-resistant, and easy to clean. Stone carpet meets all of these requirements while offering an elegant, modern look. Its seamless surface helps prevent mold growth and ensures excellent hygiene.
This is a major advantage over tiles: grout lines tend to collect dirt and moisture, creating ideal conditions for mold and limescale buildup. With stone carpet, that’s no longer a concern.
Stone carpet also feels pleasantly warm underfoot, as it doesn’t trap moisture but regulates it naturally. Another key benefit is its slip resistance — even in wet areas, the surface remains safe to walk on, providing extra safety in the bathroom.
Did you know that stone carpet isn’t just for floors? It can also be applied to vertical surfaces like walls or the outer edges of bathtubs. See for yourself:
You can find more frequently asked questions on our FAQ page.
Stone carpet itself is water-permeable, but it can be made waterproof with a special sealing layer. This makes it ideal for wet areas such as showers and bathrooms.
In principle, stone carpet can be installed inside shower cabins, but it is not generally recommended without limitations. Even with a pore sealer, there’s no absolute guarantee that all pores are completely closed. Residual open pores could allow water, soap, or oils to penetrate, which may lead to mold growth over time.
Cleaning is simple: a damp cloth or mild cleaning agent is usually sufficient. For heavier soiling, a soft brush or steam cleaner can be used.
No, stone carpet has a naturally slip-resistant texture, even when wet. This makes it safer than many other types of bathroom flooring.
Yes, as long as the tiles are firmly in place and the surface is stable. A primer is applied to ensure optimal adhesion of the stone carpet.
