🏠 Introduction: Why Marble Needs Protection in the UAE

Marble has always been a timeless choice for homes, hotels, and commercial spaces in the UAE. However, it’s also one of the most exposed surfaces to stains, scratches, etching, and dullness. Considering the UAE’s hospitality-driven economy and climate challenges, marble protection is not a luxury, but a bare necessity.

💧 Common Issues with Marble Surfaces

  • Stains: Acidic cleaners, coffee, wine, and oil leave permanent spots.
  • Etching: Lemon juice or harsh cleaning products can cause etching.
  • Scratches: Use of sharp objects, improper cutting, and dragging heavy objects can damage the surface.
  • Fading & Dullness: Marble loses its beauty due to sun exposure and poor maintenance.

🧪 Sealing vs Marble Protection Films

Sealers penetrate the stone and offer basic protection against liquid absorption, but they don’t prevent etching or scratches.

Surface Protection Films like TuffSkin form a physical barrier that protects against:

  • Acid etching
  • Stains
  • Heat
  • Liquids

💡 Did you know? Most sealers need to be reapplied every 6–12 months, while TuffSkin offers up to 10 years warranty.
