GMA participated in the International Marmomac Exhibition of Marble, Granite and Stone Processing Technology in September 2017.
Held in Verona, Italy, the 52nd show was attended by international visitors, predominantly from eastern Europe. Over 1,600 exhibitors from nearly 60 countries attended the leading fair for operators in the stone industry.
“We took the opportunity to launch our new GMA brand to our customers and visitors at the event,” International Product Manager - Water Jet Parts Tiziano Cher said.
“GMA’s business has grown and it is time to refresh our brand to reflect the company’s progressive and dynamic future ahead. Our customers and other exhibitors were complimentary of our new brand identity at the show.”
In addition, visitors from all parts of the world were very interested to find out more about our range of GMA Garnet™ abrasives that are suitable for high precision waterjet cutting. They were also keen on our abrasive blasting products for surface preparation and paint removal.
The general perception given by exhibitors at the Marmomac show is that we will see continued growth in the waterjet and abrasive blasting markets in Europe in the coming years.
The next Marmomacc Stone & Marble exhibition will take place in Verona in September this year.
GMA has also revealed its new brand at the 13th Blechexpo in November 2017. The event held in Stuttgart, Germany was attended by over 1,300 exhibitors comprising of manufacturers and distributors from 34 countries.
At the show, we showcased our wide range of high quality GMA Garnet™ abrasives and our EcoGarnet range as well as consumables for the waterjet cutting industry.
Blechexpo has gained a leading position in Europe and ranks second in the world on the list of trade fairs for sheet metal processing. GMA will be attending the next Blechexpo exhibition in 2019.
