Stone Federation Great Britain will be back at the heart of the 2008 Natural Stone Show at ExCeL, 11-13 March, next year with their \'stone village\' having signed an agreement to support the next two in the two-yearly series of the Show.

Among the Federation members who have already confirmed their positions in the \'stone village\' are industry leaders including Albion Stone, Johnsons Wellfield Quarries, Realstone, Stancliffe, Great Tew, Solnhofen and Sandberg.

Federation director Jane Buxey told NSS: Stone Federa-tion are delighted to have signed up as official supporters of the next two Natural Stone Shows (2008 and 2010) as we have been since the exhibitions first started in 1995. Our \'village\' at the heart of the show, with our members exhibiting on the distinctively designed stands within the area, represents all that\'s best in the stone industry in the UK today.

The exhibition as a whole is a superb showcase for this truly international industry, bringing it together every two years under one roof for the benefit of everyone who wants to use this most versatile of building products in any of its diverse applications."
