This complete guide—crafted with insights from Kishangarh’s most trusted marble experts, The Infinity Marble by Bhandari Marble Group—covers everything you need to know for long-lasting, flawless Italian marble floors.
Why Italian Marble Needs Special Care
Italian marble is known for:
-
High calcium content
-
Natural porosity
-
Soft, luxurious texture
-
Light-reflective surface
These qualities make it beautiful—but also prone to stains, scratches, and dullness. With the right routine, however, your flooring stays pristine for decades.

1. Clean Dust & Dirt Gently
Use:
