ENERGY SAVING

Comfort and energy saving

The low-consumption stone for modern construction

Natural stone is the ideal solution for creating floors, walls and roofing that combines taste, sustainability and energy saving. Thanks to their transportation capacity, which generates a constant exchange of air, and to their high thermal inertia, marble, travertine, porphyry, and limestone, allow the house to be kept cool in summer, and warm in winter, reducing consumption to a minimum and preserving the environment without sacrificing aesthetics and customization.

THE WORLD TO THE EXPERT

“An eco-compatible building is such for the environment and for man”

Filippo Dottor

Architect specialized in green building

“Human beings move matter continuously. All this matter creates the world and changes it. What kind of matter do we want to move and how far? In addition to reducing the embodied energy, the total energy used for production, transport and disposal, the local natural materials have a spontaneous interaction with the various factors that act on them, and this improves the living quality”.

INSULATING MATERIAL

Their insulating power of natural stone warming winter, cool in summer

The thermal inertia of natural stone means that in summer the heat of the sun, even in an entire day of radiation, is unable to make the walls hot, as it happens with other materials. Similarly, in winter, once heated, with their mass and density, the natural stone floors act as a thermal reserve and transmit the accumulated heat in a uniform, pleasant manner.

INSULATING MATERIAL

Stone is one of the most performing materials in the construction of radiant heating systems.

Preferred by architects and interior designers, the wall or underfloor heating systems allow you to make the most of the spaces by creating comfortable environment with significant energy saving. Natural stone is the perfect to bring radiant heating to its maximum expression. Slate, Col Martin, and all the types of stone we offer, determine an added value in aesthetic terms; unlike other materials, they transmit a sensation of uniform heat over the entire surface; they guarantee an ideal temperature and optimise the energy relationship between the building and the surrounding environment in a natural way.

FIREPROOF

Safe building

Strong and expressive presence, natural Stone maximizes not only the aesthetic aspect, but also the concept and quality of living. Biocompatible, green and eco sustainable, natural stone is resistant to fire and sudden changes in temperature and does not need chemical treatments to remain intact; it does not contain harmful substances, for this reason, it creates healthy, functional, and alive architectures.
