  • Quality Indeces for natural stone (special granulometry, micronized products, special dosages, etc.).
  • Arquithectural heritage and pathologies.
  • Environment (valorization and managements of residues, EPD, LCA, etc.).
  • Energy efficiency and new developments
  • Monitoring of geophysical techniques (GPR, tomography, etc.) in natural stone quarries (resource estimation, waste reduction, safety in quarrying, geological models).

With the aim of help your organization to face the challenges and opportunities of the natural stone sector, we encourages to express your necessities to our organization. In this form, it would be possible to us to offer a customized solutions.
