Marbles are metamorphic rocks caused from the re-crystallization

material and by its various types can make your ambience look
sophisticated or simple, warm or cool, elegant or rustic,
sumptuous or minimalist.
Marble World and Marble Centre situated on Bannerghatta
Road are the No.1 traders of marbles in South India. They
are highly acclaimed as traders of high quality Indian and
imported marbles for homes, shopping complexes and corporate

The price of the marble depends on the demand it has in the
present market and the processing cost. It is analyzed by
the miners and fixed.
Maintaining your polished marble floors:
Restore the polished marble or granite finish periodically,
as necessary. This approach will keep one's stone looking
new.
Maintain a commercial floor finish on the marble surface,
using sealers and regular maintenance procedures. Be sure
to select sealers and waxes with caution, as they may contain
ingredients which could dull or stain the floor. Before application,
clean the floor with soapy water and let it dry. Apply two
coats of sealer in quick succession, using sealer brushes
or pump sprayers. After 30 minutes, remove the excess sealer
with a dry cloth. Maintain the marble with the daily application
of water and soap solution and the use of high-speed buffers,
and clean thoroughly once a month.
Periodically clean the surface with a water-detergent mixture,
applying no sealers or finishes. The highly-polished marble
will eventually develop a low-luster finish.
Cleaning agents which could severely damage marble surfaces
Scouring-type cleaners (steel wool)
Acid based cleaning agents
Waxes and finishes requiring high-speed buffers
Solvents, waxes or polishes containing colour agents
Oils, turpentine
