“The decision to move the running time forward by one day is in line with suggestions from the exhibitors, exhibitors committee and sponsors, and with considerations by NürnbergMesse,†said Walter Hufnagel, member of the management board of NürnbergMesse. “The attendance will therefore be better distributed over the four days of the exhibition, as the Sunday traditionally attracted the fewest visitors. In addition, the first day of the exhibition is now no longer the public holiday, but the Wednesday, which is a full working day.â€
Held every other year, the 2003 edition of Stone+tec was deemed a success, making anticipation high for a repeat performance this year. The exhibit space will be filled with a broad range of natural stone products for both interior and exterior applications. This will include an assortment of tiles, slabs, decorative trim pieces and mosaics, which are available in a number of sizes and finishes. Attendees will also have the opportunity to observe the newest products for maintenance, preservation and restoration of natural stone. Additionally, they can witness demonstrations of large-scale fabricating and quarrying equipment and sit in on educational seminars.
