The milder scenario of the pandemic and the good moment of the world stone sector has motivated Brazilian companies to resume participation in international fairs. Exactly 60 companies in the segment have confirmed their participation in the 2022 edition of Coverings, considered the largest fair in the marble and granite sector in North America, which will take place from April 5th to 8th, in Las Vegas, United States. The event to draw the areas took place on December 6th, in Vitória, Espírito Santo, and was organized by the Brazilian Center for Ornamental Stones Exporters (Centrorochas), executing entity of It’s Natural – Brazilian Natural Stone, a sectorial project to promote Brazilian rocks in the international market, carried out in partnership with the Brazilian Trade and Investment Promotion Agency (Apex-Brasil).
Representatives of companies installed in the state were gathered in person, in the auditorium of the Federation of Industries of Espírito Santo (Findes), and, virtually, those of companies located in other Brazilian states. Following pre-established criteria, companies were divided into four groups and had the opportunity to choose their stands as their names were drawn.
“Although we tested several online draw platforms, we chose to do everything physically. We wanted the companies to follow the entire process and have a guarantee of the suitability of the selection”, detailed the manager of the sectoral project, Rogério Ribeiro.

The Brazilian Pavilion will consist of 74 stands divided into an area of 1,780 m². There are still vacancies still available for Brazilian companies in the ornamental stone sector that are interested in participating in the event.
