Home » Peruvian marble operation continues to rise
The company owns and operates more than 14 quarries, which are located at more than 13,000 feet above sea level in remote areas of rough Andean mountain topography. The quarries provide a wide variety of stones with color richness and dimensional depth - offering the look of marble and travertine with very high density and extraordinary desirable mechanical properties, according to the company.
And once blocks have been extracted and transported for processing, MarmolerÃa Gallos fabricates the material in one of two modern plants. The new plant - as well as the original facilities - include the latest generation of stoneworking machinery, and they also utilize “experimental†technology that has allowed them to produce very large tile sizes in 1-cm thickness. The modern equipment has also reduced turnaround time while increasing overall material yield, Gallos reports.
