With attention and compliance with current regulations and with innovative and low environmental impact extraction techniques, it undertakes day after day to transform this natural stone into blocks and slabs, with the awareness that marble is a durable material and therefore destined to give emotions for a very long time.

The properties of marble

A zero kilometrer masterpiece

The marble is extracted and worked directly in the Apuan-Versilia area, reducing pollution factors to a minimum.

A durable material

Always a protagonist in the history of design and architecture, marble is an ancient material but also innovative, noble and durable.

A natural stone

Marble is found in nature and its extraction is subject to numerous environmental constraints.

A recyclable resource

Its derivatives always find new life. For example, they are used to make cement, reefs, toothpastes, newspaper and much more.

What is beautiful is a joy for all seasons
and a possession for all eternity

The circular economy of marble

We strongly believe in the sustainable development of the all-round marble process, which is why we have decided to embark on a path of environmental sustainability that is not limited only to processes, but which includes the entire life cycle chain of its products.

For this reason we want to promote the local supply chain by having a large part of the material sawed, polished, netted and cast in the local sawmills and laboratories. 

We are also associated with the company Carrara Marble Way s.r.l., which takes care of taking the marble waste to give it new life, thus supporting a production chain that we hope will become as complete as possible over time, based on the differentiated use of all fractions of marble.
