MATERIALS
AND TECHNIQUES
Marble processing is a fascinating art. From the quarry and until they are loaded onto containers ready for shipment, marble slabs go through different transformation phases depending on the needs. Polishing and sealing is the main procedure in marble fabrication as it defines the true value of marble. Then they pass under polishing heads which begin with very coarse diamond abrasives, and then move to finer and finer grit abrasives, just like sanding wood. Polished marbles are then taken for a uniform spray of epoxy sealer on the surface of the stone and dried under heat lamps.
