Operational
This is the whole process of production from natural stone block cutting to polishing stage, into finished products of slabs and marble tiles in any size. Alaturca implement 3 shift for production time schedule to reach and fulfilled the high demand from the market.

The Cutting Process
At first, the block is classified by the shape and the size, and then cut by a gang saw or block cutter into slabs.

The Polishing Process
The slab is calibrated in order to make the surface smooth, even and straight flat, and also to achieve the desired thickness. After then, one or both sides of the slab will be polished.

The Squaring Process
After done with the polishing process, the slab basically is ready as finished goods, but if Alaturca need them in tiles or other sizes and shapes, Alaturca then cut the slab into the desired width, length, and shape. Alaturca call this process as the Squaring Process.

The Sorting Process ( QC )
The colour and character of each natural stone and travertine  tile will always vary one and another. To standardize the classification, Alaturca sort out the variation and quality

The Packing 
The packing method is based on customer’s request, but normally for export products, Alaturca use wood create or corrugated box as our standard. For local market, mostly they are put unpacked in pallets.

Waste Management System
The waste water from the production lines, will be collected in a waste tank prepared and periodically the residue / remenance of marble dust at the bottom of the tank will be allocated into a waste hardening process, whereas the water will be recycled to be re-used in the production.
