Our new magazine STONETECH was distributed in the 10th StoneExpo fair in Iran’s travertine production center Mahallat…. We went to Mahallat city of Iran, which can be considered as a global travertine production center and an important market in natural stone and marble processing in Iran. Google search engine mentions of Mahallat as the center of flower production and Nimvar as the central city in travertine production in Iran. There are smaller-scale factories in Mahallat and Nimvar when compared to Isfahan and Tehran. However, it is an important city since it has the significant part of the traverten reserves in Iran. Mohammad Halajian has very friendly relations with the participants coming outside of Iran. Iranian participants were very hospitable to foreign participants of the fair. Hospitality and treat is in the nature of Iranians. First of all, I must mention that Iran has an incredibly rich variety in terms of traverten and onyx varieties! It is also a geography that is rich in granite deposits, white and gray marble varieties, beige and other color marble reserves. The greatest misfortune of Iran, despite its abundant natural stone reserves, is the embargo, which has been imposed on natural stone trade for many years. The most important assurance of the industry after the export possibilities that had been narrowed down under the embargo pressure, is the growing demand for natural stone use in the construction of buildings in Iranian cities. This interest for natural stone can be observed especially in the cities such as Tehran, Isfahan and Qum. The use of productive natural stone reserves of Iran in the constructions in the domestic market has been keeping the country’s natural stone sector dynamic and going. With the use of these export quality stones of Iran in local buildings, a visual richness occur.   In Iran, the consumption of natural stone in the local market has become the key measure to maintain the natural stone sector in the country. Turkish natural stone processing machinery and consumable products producer companies show great interest in Iran natural stone market. Iran natural stone market offers huge opportunities for Turkish machinery producers. There is potential in almost all cities of Iran. Iran is one of the leading competitor of Turkey in terms of marble, travertine, onyx and granite production. Without embargo Iran would be a very important competitor to Turkey!. What we need to do is; to give support to our neighbour in presenting the natural stone varieties that Iran does not have in the world market!  In a sense, doing something similar to what Italy did in order to market Turkish natural stones and marbles to the world! Because there is diverse varieties of natural stones such as onyx, light, red and yellow travertine, white, grey, beige and colored marbles in Iran.   Moreover, there are alternatives such as opening a quarry in partnership with Iranian citizens in Iran!. There are three important natural stone production centers in Iran, which are Tahran, Isfahan and Mahallat. The distribution of marble reserves and production centers in Iran is similar to those in Turkey. Due to the embargo conditions, Iranian banks can not integrate with the world. However, there has been a significant improvement in relations between Turkey and Iran recently. Especially after the visit of President Erdogan, the use of local currencies in trade between Iran and Turkey could give a great boost to trade!. In the meantime, as we have seen in the factories in Mahallat, Nimvar and Tahran, it is necessary to renew the old natural stone processing technology used in the natural stone industry in Iran. However, due to the situation of Iran banks, renewing these technologies can not be possible. Italian producers, who are in the position of technology base in the natural stone sector, are very interested in Iran. There are Italian machinery manufacturers in three sectoral fairs held in Tehran, Isfahan and Mahallat. In terms of visitors, the fair was mainly aimed at the domestic market, the Middle East, the countries in the north of Iran, India and China. We also observed that business negotiations were held at the stands of Iranian companies located in Hall A. Hidromek, MTB Makina, Haz Abrasive, Om Engineering and Merit Abrasive companies, which have in Iran, exhibited their products in the fair.
