Sociedade de Pedreiras do Marco (SPM) has been a leading name in the natural stone industry, with a legacy of excellence that spans decades. As leaders in the extraction and transformation of natural granite, SPM has played a key role in the construction of iconic structures around the world. However, SPM is not just a company that stands out for the quality of its products; it is also a passionate advocate of sustainability and innovation in the construction sector. It is with great pride that SPM participated as a Partner in the Build Porto international conference, an event dedicated to promoting new approaches to design and construction with a focus on sustainability and environmental concern.
Build Porto: The International Conference on Sustainability in Construction
Build Porto is an international conference that brings together experts, architects, engineers, builders and construction industry leaders from around the world to discuss and promote sustainable solutions to the challenges we face today. The event aims to inspire significant changes in the way we design and construct buildings, roads and infrastructure. Sustainability and environmental concerns are the central pillars of the conference, and SPM was eager to be part of this movement for change.
SPM's involvement in Build Porto
SPM doesn't just supply high-quality natural granite for construction projects. The company has a firm commitment to innovation and sustainability, and this is what led it to participate in Build Porto as a Partner. SPM recognises the importance of supporting events that raise awareness of critical issues such as reducing environmental impact in construction. One of SPM's notable contributions to the conference was the supply of natural granite for an impressive architectural installation. This installation served as a tangible example of how natural stone can be used sustainably in construction, demonstrating the beauty, durability and versatility of granite. In addition, SPM provided information on the sustainable practices used in the extraction and processing of granite, highlighting the company's commitment to protecting the environment.
The Role of Natural Granite in Sustainable Construction
Natural granite is an outstanding choice in the search for sustainable construction solutions. Its resistance and longevity are well known, reducing the need for frequent replacement of building materials. In addition, responsible granite extraction, such as that practised by SPM, minimises environmental impact. SPM invests in modern technologies and efficient processes that reduce waste and lower the company's carbon footprint.
Sociedade de Pedreiras do Marco's participation in Build Porto 2023 as a Partner is testimony to the company's commitment to sustainable construction and environmental concern. By supplying natural granite for an architectural installation at the conference, SPM demonstrated how natural stone can be used innovatively and responsibly in construction. With its dedication to sustainability and excellence, SPM continues to be a leader in the natural stone industry and a role model for other companies in the construction sector. Build Porto provided an important platform for sharing knowledge and inspiring change, and SPM played a vital role in that process. As we move towards a more sustainable future, we can count on companies like SPM to lead the way.
