Stone+tec is the international trade fair for natural stone and stone technology, held every two years at NürnbergMesse. It brings together stone producers, processors, machine manufacturers, and architects from across the world. Three halls of material, craft, and technology -- and an audience that makes purchasing decisions based on what they see and touch.
What happens at Stone+tec 2026
Natural stone and stone technology is a visual and haptic industry. Buyers come to see surfaces and touch materials in person -- the weight, the texture, the temperature of a slab are things no catalogue page can reproduce. Photography gets closer than most, but only if it is good enough to carry the impression of the material. With a two-year gap between editions, the images and video you produce at Stone+tec have to carry your brand communication until 2028.
Our recommendation for Stone+tec 2026
Stone is sold through its surface - what you see and what you feel. Texture, grain, colour, finish. None of that survives a phone snapshot taken under trade fair lighting. If your material is the product, the photography has to be good enough to replace a studio shoot. The Story Bundle is the right scope for Stone+tec. A photo pack of 50 to 70 images covering material close-ups, booth presentation, and any live demonstrations running at the stand. Paired with a short hero film -- a processing sequence, an application shot, or a craftsmanship moment -- it gives you material for catalogues, social, and trade press from a single production day.
