I am Material: natural stone

I am Material: Natural Stone on Thursday 16 April will let you discover why natural stone has been used for centuries to build for eternity. This primal material is known for its beauty, resistance to wear and maintenance-free nature. It retains heat, stays cool in summer and is extracted from deep layers of earth, often from distant lands.

At the same time, natural stone presents major challenges. Due to its high weight and transport over long distances, the material has high carbon emissions. During I am Material: Natural Stone, you will gain insight into how to deal with this more consciously and when using natural stone really adds value. The focus is on high-quality reuse and recycling, giving residual flows and used stones a second life in new applications.
