Established in 2002, the Portuguese company Filstone specializes in extracting limestone and granite. Originally a family initiative, Filstone has earned a prominent position in both domestic and international markets, boasting over 130 employees and achieving an export rate of over 90%. Filstone stands out not only for its certified Stone PT products but also for its commitment to environmental sustainability, utilizing everything from blocks to by-products in limestone extraction. The company has opened two Filstone Centers in China and plans further international partnerships in stone-centric countries.
In 2021, Filstone acquired Stork, an innovative solution combining natural stone and cork. This certified sustainable product offers benefits such as weight reduction, energy efficiency, and impact resistance, expanding Filstone’s portfolio to meet diverse customer needs in coatings, furniture, and more.
Filstone showcases the qualities of Stork through integrated wall panels within the exhibition space. Additionally, tables and mirrors designed by Emmanuel Babled, crafted with Stork, are also on display.
