ORLANDO, FL — ITA, Italian Trade Agency will present a large group of the most innovative and internationally renowned Italian suppliers of dimensional natural stones at Coverings 2015, which will be held from April 14 to 17, 2015 at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, FL.

Italian stone materials have been praised since ancient times. Many materials have been on the market for centuries; others are no longer available because of limited resources; others, thanks to new technology and knowledge, have recently been introduced back in the market after a period of inactivity of the quarries. Years of experience — coupled with the most advanced technology — allow Italian stone producers to quarry the most exquisite stone and marble in a completely eco-friendly manner, as they carve out natural stone using no chemicals. Italy has a long tradition of being a frontrunner in the stone industry and remains the leader with its highly skilled workforce and avant-garde technology. The combination of experience, technology and high-quality three-dimensional stone materials helps create the magnificent collection that the Italian stone and marble industry has to offer.
