Description

Talking about porphyry means referring to a product and know-how that spans time, sought after for its beauty, strength and durability, one of the most popular Italian products abroad and among the most widely used natural stones in architecture. Rocks similar to porphyry can be found all over the world, but only in Trentino Alto Adige (Italy) do they have the ideal characteristics to become a precious product for paving city squares and streets, parks, villas and gardens, proven by centuries of use. Trentino Porphyry is an extraordinary resource, abundant but not unlimited, capable of telling the world about the value and beauty of products that are Made in Italy. For this reason, it is strategic to appreciate it and guide its correct use by means of communication dedicated to designers, users and administrators in which it clearly emerges why Trentino Porphyry is so special, how the paving is designed, how it is laid, how the production cycle is managed, how circular economy and the sustainability of the product are pursued and achieved. This led to the project to issue the volume entitled “PORPHYRY - technical guide to a noble stone”, an important publication in terms of content and form, designed to be a tool providing professional knowledge for the sector. In fact, following in the footsteps of the manuals produced a few decades ago, but in a modern way and on a national and global scale, this guide illustrates - from a genetic, regulatory, application and maintenance point of view - the product that represents a sector that has recently rediscovered a new international destination, by exporting to over 50 countries.
