Company Heritage and Materials
Since 1959, we have collaborated closely with trusted partners to process blocks, slabs, and marble elements. Our materials come not only from our own quarries, but also from the most respected extraction sites throughout Italy.
Over time, we have built a strong and lasting relationship with the Carrara marble district—a globally recognized source for Bianco Carrara, Calacatta, Statuario, and Arabescato marbles. These iconic stones represent the heritage and prestige of Italian marble worldwide.
Alongside them, we proudly offer our own Bianco Perlino, a material that has earned international acclaim for its understated elegance and timeless simplicity. Its clean aesthetic and soft tonality make it particularly suitable for modern, minimalist, and contemporary interiors.
Moreover, Bianco Perlino stands out for its color consistency, structural integrity, and ability to adapt to a wide range of architectural styles. As a result, it has become a reference point in the global natural stone market.
Thickness
Recommended Uses and Thickness Guidelines for Our Marbles
Our marbles are suitable for a wide variety of applications. The thickness varies based on usage and the size of the tile.
For indoor flooring, we recommend tiles with a thickness of 1, 1.5, or 2 cm. The best thickness depends on the shape and dimensions of the tile, since the product must be cut directly from the slab. For wall cladding, we suggest the same thicknesses. However, as with flooring, the shape and dimensions play a crucial role in the final choice.
For outdoor flooring and pedestrian walkways, a minimum thickness of 2 to 3 cm is advised. In these areas, we also recommend anti-slip finishes to ensure safety and compliance with standard practices.
In the case of external wall coverings, we prefer matte, long-lasting, and non-reflective finishes. These finishes protect the material and help preserve its natural color over time, avoiding unwanted alterations due to sun or weather exposure.
Driveway flooring—where vehicle traffic occurs—requires greater thicknesses, typically 4 to 6 cm, depending on the format and layout of the tiles. This ensures both mechanical stability and aesthetic continuity.
All the thickness recommendations above also apply to street furniture and exterior decorative elements. These applications include benches, planters, custom paving, or facade details, where both form and function must coexist.
The Identity of Our Marble – Bianco Perlino
Our marble stands apart from traditional materials such as Carrara marbles, thanks to its distinctive composition and visual consistency.
Take Bianco Perlino, for example. This material shows no major color variation, and its veining is refined and linear, unlike other marbles which often feature erratic patterns. Its structure is compact and balanced, making it visually clean and technically reliable.
Designers choose Bianco Perlino not just for its beauty, but for its ability to remain stable over time. It preserves its color, strength, and surface integrity even under intense use. This makes it a trusted solution for both modern and traditional architecture.
Furthermore, Bianco Perlino excels in environments where long-lasting elegance is essential. It brings visual calm to a space, without compromising on identity or style.

Marble top edges profile
When requesting a table, kitchen top or bathroom top, it is important to specify which type of edge you prefer, the most frequent processes are listed below :

STRAIGHT EDGE
Straight edge: it is the most common, simple and economical process, often used on modern furnishings with linear finishes. Represents the thickness of the top in a rectilinear way with a slight 45° bevel both above and below. Useful to remove the sharp edge on both sides. As an alternative to the bevel, also for a matter of taste, you can decide to create a slightly rounded bevel, a more expensive processing detail.

FULL BULLNOSE
Full bullnose: it is one of the most classic processes and is used above all for stair treads, kitchen tops, furniture details and edges of protruding thresholds and sills. It gives the product a soft and elegant appearance but above all it has the safety function for any accidental bumps that could create small breaks, thanks to its rounded shapes.

HALF BULLNOSE
Half bullnose: just as the name suggests, the profile is rounded in the upper part up to half of the edge and then straight in the second half of the thickness with the lower part a small 45 ° bevel. Unlike the torus finish, this type of visible processing makes it appear thicker than marble.

DEMI BULLNOSE
Demi bullnose: just as the name suggests, it recalls the beak of an owl or a kind of half moon. The top profile is entirely rounded. Unlike the torus coast, it has a radius over the entire coast. This process, like the previous ones, is particular to design on the taste of the professional or the customer.

30° REVERSE BEVEL EDGE
30° reverse bevel edge : it is a process for those who want a captivating edge. It has both slightly rounded edges. This profile gives the idea of seeing a thinner and consequently elegant thickness, but at the same time a more delicate edge in case of any bumps.

EDGE AT 45° BEVELLED WITH SHED
Edge at 45° bevelled with shed: it is a very popular process in Northern Europe, the edge of the top is cut at 45° and then a front sheath is glued with mastic, always cut at 45° in size according to the thickness to be obtained in the front side, for a more massive view

OGEE PROFILE MARBLE EDGE
Ogee profile marble edge: it is a process required especially in luxury environments and with precious materials that is made by hand with the help of tools based on the customized design required. If, on the other hand, it is a standard shape, it can be made with industrial tools. Usually this finish is a combination of rounded elements and more elaborate or customized shapes.
