The decisive technical factor is the choice of the right surface and finish and the use of the right laying materials. Once the materials are laid to »suit the wellness need«, they must also be permanently and correctly cleaned and cared for. The reaction of the stone to contact with water and humidity is the most important decision criteria for the wellness area...more

China’s building industry needs stone, especially in view of the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing and for the Expo 2010 in Shanghai. The Chinese metropolis would like to show itself at its best by then. Natural stone from abroad is used everywhere: in many hotel lobbies, on tower block facades and in public amenities like Century Park. Light or intensively coloured natural stones are popular, especially red materials: The colour red is associated with luck in China. It also brings luck to the producers of red natural stones like the Finnish company Interrock, whose Karelia Red granite is highly popular...more
