Travertine Stone Factory: Custom MCM Thickness Options for Diverse Construction Needs

Release time : December 21 2025

When it comes to building materials, there's a quiet revolution happening—one that blends durability with design flexibility, and sustainability with style. At the heart of this revolution is COLORIA GROUP , a name that's become synonymous with innovative building solutions for both residential and commercial projects worldwide. With decades of experience under their belt and a strong presence even in markets like Saudi Arabia, they've carved a niche as a one-stop provider that doesn't just sell materials, but crafts solutions tailored to the unique stories of each building.

What truly sets COLORIA GROUP apart is their focus on MCM (Modified Cementitious Material) —a game-changing modified cement-based composite that's redefining what's possible in construction. Think of MCM as the chameleon of building materials: it's lightweight yet strong, eco-friendly by nature, and endlessly customizable. Whether you're dreaming of a sleek commercial facade that stands out in the city skyline or a cozy residential interior that feels like home, MCM brings that vision to life—especially when you factor in their ability to tweak thickness, texture, and finish to fit any project's needs.

In this article, we're diving deep into COLORIA GROUP's MCM universe, exploring how their custom thickness options make these materials adaptable to everything from high-rise exteriors to boutique hotel interiors. We'll spotlight some of their standout products, from the versatility of MCM Big Slab Board Series to the artistic flair of Travertine (Starry Green) , and even the modern edge of Foamed Aluminium Alloy Board (Vintage Gold) . By the end, you'll see why COLORIA GROUP isn't just a supplier—they're a partner in turning construction challenges into design opportunities.

Why MCM? The Backbone of Modern Construction

Before we jump into specific products, let's talk about why MCM has become the go-to choice for architects and builders alike. Traditional building materials often force trade-offs: natural stone is beautiful but heavy, concrete is durable but rigid, metal can be sleek but prone to corrosion. MCM smashes those trade-offs by combining the best of all worlds.

First off, it's eco-friendly . Made from recycled materials and requiring less energy to produce than traditional cement, MCM aligns with the growing demand for green building practices. It's also lightweight—up to 70% lighter than natural stone— which means easier installation, lower transportation costs, and less stress on building structures. But don't let the lightness fool you: MCM boasts impressive strength, withstanding harsh weather conditions from scorching desert heat (hello, Saudi Arabia!) to freezing winters.

But the real magic? Customization . Unlike one-size-fits-all materials, MCM can be adjusted in thickness, texture, and color to match even the most specific design briefs. Need a ultra-thin panel for a curved wall? Done. Want a thicker slab for a high-traffic commercial floor? No problem. This flexibility is why COLORIA GROUP's MCM has become a favorite for projects that refuse to compromise on style or functionality.

Spotlight on Star Products: Where Thickness Meets Design

COLORIA GROUP's MCM lineup is like a palette for architects—each series offering unique "colors" (or in this case, textures and finishes) to paint their vision. Let's zoom in on a few standout options, each with its own thickness versatility and design personality.

1. MCM Big Slab Board Series: Making a Bold Statement

When you want a facade that says "grand" without the hassle of tiny tiles, the MCM Big Slab Board Series is your answer. These large-format panels (some up to 3m x 1.5m!) minimize seams, creating a smooth, uninterrupted surface that's perfect for modern commercial buildings, luxury hotels, or even statement-making residential exteriors.

What's exciting here is the thickness range: from 6mm for lightweight applications (think interior feature walls) up to 20mm for high-impact exteriors that need to stand up to wind, rain, and everything in between. Imagine a shopping mall with a facade clad in these slabs—clean lines, no unsightly grout lines, and a look that feels both contemporary and timeless.

One of our favorite applications? Pairing the Big Slab Board with Travertine (Starry Green) finish. The subtle green hue, speckled with crystalline "stars" that catch the light, turns an ordinary wall into a piece of art. And with thickness options like 12mm or 15mm, it's sturdy enough for exterior use but still light enough to keep installation costs in check.

2. MCM Flexible Stone: Bending to Your Design's Will

If the Big Slab Board is about boldness, MCM Flexible Stone is about adaptability. Picture this: a museum with a curved, organic-shaped facade, or a restaurant with a cylindrical interior wall that wraps around diners like a warm hug. Traditional rigid materials would crack or look awkward here, but Flexible Stone bends—literally—to the occasion.

With thickness options ranging from 3mm to 8mm, these panels are thin enough to flex (we're talking a bend radius as tight as 50cm!) but tough enough to handle daily wear and tear. They're ideal for both interior and exterior curved surfaces, and the texture options are endless. From rough, stone-like finishes that evoke a rustic vibe to smooth, polished surfaces that feel modern, Flexible Stone proves that durability doesn't have to mean rigidity.

We recently saw a project in Riyadh where Flexible Stone was used to clad the exterior of a boutique hotel with a wave-like design. The panels, in a soft beige travertine texture with 5mm thickness, curved seamlessly, creating the illusion of a building that's gently flowing. It's the kind of detail that makes you stop and think, "How did they do that?" Spoiler: It's all thanks to MCM's flexibility.

3. Lunar Peak Golden: Bringing Celestial Elegance to Earth

For projects that demand a touch of luxury, look no further than the Lunar Peak series—and Lunar Peak Golden is its crown jewel. Inspired by the warm glow of moonlight on mountain peaks, this finish combines a rich golden hue with subtle texture variations that mimic natural stone. It's not just a material; it's a mood enhancer.

Thickness-wise, Lunar Peak Golden is available from 10mm to 25mm, making it versatile for everything from accent walls in high-end offices to full building exteriors. The 15mm option, for example, strikes the perfect balance: thick enough to feel substantial but not so heavy that it requires extra structural support. We've seen it used in a luxury villa project in Jeddah, where the exterior walls, in Lunar Peak Golden with 20mm thickness, catch the afternoon sun and bathe the surrounding garden in a warm, inviting light. It's the kind of effect that turns a house into a home with personality.

4. Foamed Aluminium Alloy Board (Vintage Gold): Where Metal Meets Warmth

Last but certainly not least, let's talk about Foamed Aluminium Alloy Board (Vintage Gold) —a material that marries the industrial edge of metal with the warmth of vintage design. Unlike traditional solid aluminum, this foamed version is lightweight (thanks to its cellular structure) and offers a unique, slightly textured finish that feels both retro and modern.

With thickness options from 4mm to 12mm, these panels are a favorite for interior accents, retail storefronts, and even signage. The 6mm vintage gold variant, for instance, was used in a trendy café in Dubai, where it clad the counterfront and backsplash. The warm gold tone complemented the wooden furniture, while the metal texture added a touch of industrial chic. And because it's corrosion-resistant, it's just as suitable for covered exterior areas like patios or hotel lobbies.

What we love most about this material is its versatility in thickness: go thin (4mm) for a subtle accent strip, or thicker (12mm) for a bold feature wall. It's proof that even metal can be soft and approachable when done right.

Custom Thickness Options: Tailored to Your Project's Story

At the end of the day, the beauty of MCM lies in its ability to adapt to your project—not the other way around. COLORIA GROUP understands that every building has a unique story, and thickness is a key chapter in that story. Do you need a thin, lightweight panel to reduce construction time? Or a thicker, more robust slab to make a statement? Whatever your need, their custom thickness options ensure the material fits the narrative.

To give you a clearer picture, here's a breakdown of some popular MCM products and their thickness ranges, along with how they translate to real-world applications:

Product Name	Thickness Range (mm)	Typical Applications	Why This Thickness Works
MCM Big Slab Board Series	6 – 20	Commercial facades, airport terminals, high-rise exteriors	Thicker slabs (15-20mm) for wind resistance; thinner (6-10mm) for interior feature walls
MCM Flexible Stone	3 – 8	Curved walls, column cladding, boutique store interiors	Thinner panels (3-5mm) for maximum flexibility; 8mm for slightly sturdier curved exteriors
Travertine (Starry Green)	8 – 15	Luxury villas, resort exteriors, hotel lobbies	Balances durability (12-15mm for exteriors) with visual appeal (8mm for interior accents)
Lunar Peak Golden	10 – 25	High-end office buildings, luxury residential facades	Thicker (20-25mm) for grand exteriors; 10-15mm for elegant interior walls
Foamed Aluminium Alloy Board (Vintage Gold)	4 – 12	Retail storefronts, café interiors, signage	Thin (4-6mm) for lightweight accents; 10-12mm for more substantial feature walls

But thickness isn't just about numbers—it's about solving problems. For example, a client in Riyadh once needed to clad a 10-story commercial building with a material that could withstand the city's extreme heat and sandstorms. COLORIA GROUP recommended their MCM Big Slab Board in 18mm thickness, which offered the structural stability needed while keeping the weight low enough to avoid extra building reinforcement. The result? A building that's both beautiful and built to last.

We recently spoke with an architect who worked with COLORIA GROUP on a hospital project in Dammam. "We needed a material that was hygienic, easy to clean, and warm enough to put patients at ease," they said. "COLORIA recommended their MCM Flexible Stone in a smooth, light beige finish with 6mm thickness. It was easy to install around the curved nurse stations, and the patients love how it feels less 'clinical' than regular tiles. Plus, the team walked us through every step—from sampling to installation. It made a stressful project feel manageable."
