Join us for a CEU-accredited Lunch & Learn in Sacramento exploring the key differences between natural stone and manmade surfaces for industry professionals.
Hosted at IRG Stone in partnership with Vermont Quarries, this educational session pairs technical insight with hands-on material exploration.
———————————————-
Natural stone and manmade materials each play an important role in today’s built environment, but understanding when and why to specify one over the other is key.
This presentation will guide architects and designers through a comparative overview of natural stone vs. manmade surfaces, covering performance characteristics, sustainability considerations, and real-world application.
Following the presentation, guests are invited to enjoy a guided showroom tourfeaturing:
- Newly arrived domestic marbles from Vermont
- An introduction to IRG Stone’s new Eco manmade line
Lunch will be provided, and attendees will have time to explore slabs, ask questions, and connect with fellow design professionals.
