ON-GOING PROJECT

®ECO-MINERAL-PROCESS
NO CONCRETE
NO STEEL

IN-HOUSE RESEARCH LAB

The in-house research lab is a true miniature factory, a pilot facility where every process, every piece of machinery is perfectly reproduced to scale.
A catalyst of ideas, where everything begins: a place in which to explore the material, testing its expressive qualities, developing new dimensions, condensing conceptual study and experimentation with forms, structures and aesthetics.

IN-HOUSE RESEARCH LAB

Thanks to remarkable investments in R&D and the search for new stylistic and productive trends, Mineral Expertise can constantly offer the market new stimuli and new design ideas. This true research laboratory, with a fully dedicated team of 3 engineers, at the heart of our innovation philosophy, with the development and use of innovative technologies that disrupt the codes of the mineral and expand the possibilities of its application (® “Eco-Mineral-Glass and ® “Eco-Mineral-Process” both under patent process).

® “ECO-MINERAL-GLASS”

This marble on glass process allows the natural daylight to illuminate the interior and the evening artificial lighting to glow outside emitting a warm, amber glow, while allowing panoramic views. This process offers a range of aesthetical solutions, such as different styles of face caps from horizontal to vertical lining, to a more minimalistic look using structural glazing or clamping technologies.
This marble on glass curtain walling also offers tailored solutions for those projects that require a specific architectural design for their facade. This process has been developed in association with AGC group (world’s leading producer of plate glass).
Our process of marble on structural glass offers architects the possibility to work panels of large dimension in fine thickness that can be integrated directly into curtain facades, by seeking to develop the lightness and transparency of this material (patented process).
The two main assets of the ®Eco-Mineral-Glass process consists of emphasizing the transparency properties of the marble and allowing a facade uniformity on the cladding.

BACKLIT MARBLE

We are keeping on working on research into illumination techniques applied to the translucent properties of marble, such as Optic-fiber lightening & LED dynamic lightening techniques.

® “ECO-MINERAL-PROCESS”

This completely new process allows us to realize the most complex shapes within a target of prices while saving on materials.
This technique is inspired by the Renaissance «commesso», widely used for centuries, but applied to our time thanks to algorithms, artificial intelligence and the power of our new drawing softwares (patented process).
