Building Industry

Pumice, due to its properties of porosity and light weight, is used for construction of :

• lightened concretes
• plasters
• thermal insulation
• acoustic insulation
• construction of light items
• fume outlets
• light fillings
• biological building industry
• blocks made of volcanic lapillus
• rectangular piece for foundation
