The fascinating scenario of the Italian Stone Theatre, among works celebrating Italian excellence in stone and pools of water multiplying its majesty, was the setting for the award ceremony of the twelfth edition of the Best Communicator Award.

Natural stone must become the key for sustainable urban development and urban re-development. This is what emerged yesterday at Veronafiere during the inauguration of the 53rd edition of Marmomac - the world's leading marble and technology sector event scheduled until Saturday 29 September.

To commemorate the launching of the Guidoni Concept – the first “one-stop shop” channel of the Guidoni Group (Brazil), the large stone producer has partnered with the Italian-Brazilian artist Luiz de Souza to create commemorative bags that mark the new moment of the company.

With three hydraulic rock drills instead of two, and still retaining a light weight, the new SpeedROC 3F is designed to reach high levels of productivity with very low fuel consumption.

Major international brands in the furniture and design accessories field meet up with marble processing companies: the outcome is the exhibition named Brand & Stone, which will be curated by Giorgio Canale, with original concept by Danilo Di Michele, and set up within the scope of The Italian Stone Theater at Marmomac 2018.

Neolith invites architects, designers and specifiers to discover its latest slabs, pore over art, socialize and see culinary masters in action during “Neolith Nature,” a special event that will be at the Crowne Plaza in Verona, Italy, from 10:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. on September 26 through September 28 – the dates Marmomac 2018 will simultaneously be held nearby at the exhibition center.
