Albox travertine has a top-class showcase in Italy this week. The Albox company Margar Stone is present at Marmomac 2026, the great international natural stone fair, which is being held at Veronafiere (Verona) from 22 to 25 September.
At its stand, the firm is showing a selection of its travertines, in gold and yellow tones and other natural varieties, and is offering advice to professionals and clients looking for the right stone for each project, from façades, flooring and swimming pools to bathrooms, worktops or cladding. “Natural stone is better understood when it is seen, touched and talked about,” the company sums up in the invitation it has published on its website.
A quarry with more than a century of history
Behind the brand is a family business, founded in 1994 by the four Oller García siblings. It extracts the travertine from its own quarry, in Los Marcelinos (Albox), and processes it at its factory, just 500 metres from the mouth of the quarry. According to the company, stone has been extracted there since the late 19th century.
Today it works with diamond wire cutting, precision calibration and more than 20 types of finish, and markets varieties such as Travertino Amarillo Oro, Oro Natural, Amarillo Natural, Clásico, Grey and Crema, exporting to the whole of the European Union.
Why does it matter here?
Because the Valley’s stone is not just a Macael affair. Albox also has quarrying, craftsmanship and industry that goes out to compete further afield. “From Albox, in Almería, we work every day with a material that is part of our history and our surroundings,” explains Margar Stone, which sees Verona as an opportunity to “keep bringing our travertines to new architecture, interior design and construction projects”.
And it is no minor showcase: Marmomac is celebrating its 60th anniversary this year and, at its last edition, brought together 1,400 exhibitors and 50,000 visitors, according to the organisers themselves.
It is not the first time its stone has shone away from home. In 2024, its materials formed part of ‘Aisha’, the space with which the Albox studio Paralela Taller Creativo won the Best Project award at Marbella Design & Art.
From elValle Actualidad, we can only celebrate that the stone of our land continues to make its way in the world.
