Our Travertine Quarries
On average we are producing about 1000-1500 m3/month travertine from our quarries. When needed, our production levels can be increased.
We produce 1st quality large blocks, 2nd quality ST blocks from our quarries.
Our reserves are quiet large and in homogeneous strucructure. It is possible to supply travertine for several years at sustainable quality and quantities.
