The union that makes the stone sector advance - Technologies that make it possible to do more and better with a focus on the sustainability and quality of natural stones

Behind the beauty and exuberance of ornamental stones there is a chain of processes that require geological knowledge, skill, advanced techniques and cutting-edge technologies to deliver the best to customers in a sustainable way.

The union that makes the stone sector advance - Technologies that make it possible to do more and better with a focus on the sustainability and quality of natural stones

It all starts with the extraction of stones in the quarries, where large blocks of stone are extracted and transported to the industries where the cuts will be made. The ability of professionals to visualize the final parts within these blocks is essential for the final product to be of quality.

In companies, the blocks undergo an inspection and are prepared so that the cutting surface is smooth and uniform. Computer-aided design (CAD) technology plays a special role in this phase, allowing professionals to visualize the final result even before cutting begins.
