Representatives from 27 companies from several countries. including Spain, Portugal, Italy, Germany, the United States and South Korea, visited Cosentino headquarters in Cantoria for a technical seminar specifically focused on Dekton.
The seminar offered in-depth overview of Dekton and its manufacturing process utilizing the company’s exclusive Particle Sintering Technology (PST).
