| Stone+tec identifies origin as a quality attribute for stone  At Stone+tec 2007 in the Exhibition Centre Nuremberg from 6-9 June 2007, companies from all over the world offer a wide variety of natural stone and the technologies for its specific application. The International Trade Fair Natural Stone and Stoneprocessing Technology with some 1,000 exhibitors is one of the biggest get-togethers for natural stone professionals at the heart of Europe. The special show "Natural Stone Architecture – Made in Germany" at Stone+tec 2007 shows a cross-section of the products of leading German natural stone companies. The presentation is intended primarily for architects and material decision-makers involved with large building projects.The name of the place of origin as a quality feature is also used in another setting: Euroroc – the European & International Federation of Natural Stone Industries – has adopted the logo "Natural Stone – Every Piece Unique" as a common logo in various language versions to support its work and show consumers they are getting natural stone quality from Europe. On Thursday, 7 June 2007, the "Stone Craft Day" at Stone+tec 2007, the presentation of the Peter Parler Award in the morning is followed by an afternoon geared to restoration: Starting at 2 p.m., experts from exhibiting companies provide information at five presentations chaired by the Bundesinnungsverband des Deutschen Steinmetz-, Stein- und Holzbildhauerhandwerks on the following subjects: "Professional Cleaning, Hardening and Impregnation of Sandstone", "Natural Stone Repair", "Renovation of Floors", "Laying Bonded Paving" and "Laying Natural Stone without Discolouration". write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Construction News :: home page |
