Cantoria, 21 March 2018.-Cosentino Group, global company and leader in the production and distribution of innovative surfaces for the world of architecture and design, will play a prominent role at Milan Design Week 2018, the most important event in the international design calendar. From 17-22 April, it will bring hundreds of designers, architects, students and sector professionals from all five continents together in the Italian city.

Milan Design Week is the platform where the top companies and most recognised designers and architects in the world present their most innovative offerings on two unmissable stages. The first of these is the Milan fair area, where events such as the International Furnishing Accessories Exhibition (Salone del Mobile) and International Bathroom Exhibition (Salone del Bagno) take place; the second is the Fuorisalone, a term referring to the events and exhibitions held in various locations across the Italian city. This year, Cosentino will be present at both events, once again showing its leadership in the sector and its capacity for innovation.
