GRANITIFIANDRE CELEBRATES ITS FIRST 50 YEARS

On this occasion GranitiFiandre wishes to recall the milestones in its history with the people who took part in it, inviting the architects, designers and engineers who have always given preference to Fiandre materials to become the stars in the next chapter of the company's history.
With Active Clean Air & Antibacterial Ceramic^TM, the revolutionary productive process produced after years of study, GranitiFiandre offers its counterparts a new challenge: designing a new concept of wellness together.
ACTIVE LAB: IMAGINATION, CREATIVITY, REALITY. NEW CONCEPTS OF WELLNESS is the evolving workshop GranitiFiandre wishes to set up thanks to its partners’ creativity.
ACTIVE LAB plans to hold a concrete brainstorming session for innovative proposals envisaging a new “green” lifestyle.
The term “wellness” now has a much broader meaning than it used to. Wellness is no longer just a matter of personal experience, but has a broader meaning encompassing all aspects of day-to-day life. Wellness now refers to the physical and natural phenomena distinguishing the natural ecosystem, but also the way in which man relates to his surroundings/environment and social context.
 
The ACTIVE LAB: IMAGINATION, CREATIVITY, REALITY. NEW CONCEPTS OF WELLNESS exhibition gives free rein to the creativity of architects, designers and engineers to come up with a new concept of "green" living: a wide-ranging theme that sets no limits to let the imagination run free in every area. The only constraint is the size of the Active Taxos Extreme tiles which will act as “canvases” on which the participants must present their proposals, which must be either 75x75 cm or 150x75 cm.
Entries will be exhibited in the company’s Megastore starting on May 12, during Open Days.
A new concept of wellness that begins with Graniti Fiandre for a new era that will take us into our next 50 years together!
