Stonetec 2020 has been postponed until next year in May due to the Covid-19 pandemic. STEIN is nevertheless presenting an industry report in the 06/2020 print issue with many current product innovations from the areas of materials, construction chemicals, tools & more and art foundries. The last article in our online series on “Art foundries” is published today.
The Plein Art Foundry writes that it was with understanding – combined with a little melancholy – that it learned of the cancellation of this year’s Stonetec, which has long been a firm fixture in the industry calendar. For Plein, there is no question that canceling the traditional trade fair would have been the only sensible decision and thus offers planning security to all those involved. Under normal circumstances, the company would have been happy to welcome business partners, customers and trade fair visitors to the Stonetec stand and present the latest innovations to them: Among other things, the presentation of the recently published main catalog was planned. In addition to numerous new product additions, such as trimmings, ornaments and figures, the pool of fonts has also increased. In addition, the panel configurator and a new version of the font configurator were to be presented to the general public for the first time. The planned release is now scheduled for early summer 2020. Plein will provide regular updates on the latest developments via social media and its own website and would like to maintain all connections even in these difficult times. The company is also hoping for a joint meeting at Stonetec 2021. www.plein.de
The Strassacker art foundry promises to present numerous new products over the course of the year despite the Stonetec shutdown. The online store will continue to be constantly updated and a new catalog with many new products will be published as soon as possible this year. There will be new grave sets with very different and exciting design approaches as well as new font holders in very different shapes, which can be used flexibly for different types of graves, especially small ones. The great commitment to the area of mourning and cemetery culture, e.g. with the “trauer-now.de” platform, will also be continued with great dedication.
