Marmomac presents the 60th edition with 1,400 exhibitors
Marmomac returns to Verona from 22 to 25 September with a special edition celebrating the past and looking to the future
Key points
With more than 300 stone varieties (including Arabescato Orobico, Travertino Romano, Ceppo di Gré, Pietra di Luserna, Bardiglio, Verde Alpi and Botticino), Italia is one of the leading countries, globally, for the production and processing of marble and stone, thanks not only to the quality of the raw material but also, and perhaps above all, to the excellence of the processing and applications, particularly in architecture and interior design.
A Made in Italy excellence
In our country, the natural stone sector counts about 3,200 companies and more than 34,000 employees, with a total turnover - between materials and processing technologies - of 4.5 billion Euro and exports accounting for 70.8% of national production, amounting to 3.1 billion Euro, according to Confindustria Marmomacchine data referring to 2025.
It is therefore not surprising that it is precisely in Italia that one of the most important trade fairs dedicated to this sector - indeed, to the entire supply chain, which also includes the production of machinery and technology - has taken place for more than 80 years: Marmomac.
The evolution of the industry in 60 editions
Founded in 1940 in Sant'Ambrogio di Valpolicella under the name of "Exhibition of Marble and Machinery", Marmomac this year reaches its 60th edition, to be held in the halls of Veronafiere from 22 to 25 September 2026. A special edition, which as well as showcasing, as always, the latest achievements in stylistic and technological research by companies, will retrace the evolution of this sector.
Around 1,400 exhibitors from more than 54 countries and a global community of more than 50,000 operators and professionals from 140 nations are expected in Verona.
