Marmomac is the most important world fair dedicated to the entire stone production chain, from the quarry to the processed product, from technologies and machinery to tools. Born in one of the main Italian districts for the extraction and processing of natural stone, Marmomac is today the main international hub of the sector’s protagonists, an irreplaceable platform where business and professional development meet, becoming a privileged place for innovation and training.

Following the health emergency and the consequent lockdown, Marmomac meets the need of the largest marble community to rethink the future of the sector’s economy and of the exhibition system in general. To do this, it launches the “Marmomac Re-Start” project in 2020. In 2021, to celebrate the return of the event in attendance, Marmomac presents its operators with a portal entirely dedicated to natural stone professionals: Marmomac Plus, a virtual space open to all companies in the sector, a networking tool active 365 days a year and place of access for any initiative linked to the event, including participation in the physical event in September. An exceptional showcase open to the international market, it allows the companies involved to promote their brand and the best products and projects, but also events and meeting opportunities aimed at members of the largest marble community.
In 2022, Marmomac looks with satisfaction at the results achieved albeit in a moment of universal uncertainty and plans an event enriched by the experience of the last edition, but always aimed at improving and improving its exhibition offer.
