Towards the end of the 70s, Luigi
Scapin, with his three sons Vincenzo, Gianni and Romeo, built the first factory
specialized in the crafting of stones for the building sector. Scamar-Scapin
Marbles was then born in Tombolo (PD, Italy).
The company works with natural
stone, marble, granite and engineered stone for building construction and
furniture design.
The company's core business is kitchen worktops, alongside several related products: bathroom counter-tops, table tops and furniture accessories, floor and wall surfaces, bath tubs, carved blocks and sculptures.
The first step for the company’s success was to increase the level of precision of the work processes, which was achieved by adapting the existing machine tools and purchasing the first NC stone working machines.

The first step for the company’s success was to increase the level of precision of the work processes, which was achieved by adapting the existing machine tools and purchasing the first NC stone working machines.
The second step was to change the
company’s name with one that communicate confidence: "Marmo Arredo, the
stones for the furniture".
The most important markets for Marmo Arredo are currently Italy and other European countries, in relation to the daily output of kitchen tops, bathroom tops and furniture accessories. On the worldwide stage, the company operates through contracts or with custom-made projects.

In the near future Marmo Arredo envisions a more
heterogeneous market demand that includes both engineered and natural stones,
as well as a significant increase in ceramic based materials.
Marmo Arredo is now on the market more and more effectively and efficiently and its research vocation is constantly being proved by constant development of state-of-the-art patents and technologies; in this being also supported by custom-made machineries and solutions developed by Breton.
Breton has recently provided a SmartFlex: a CNC cutting center with 3 spindles, belt rotating work bench and twist head. One of the spindles comes with a head with suction cups for taking the material and optimizing the surface to be cut. It is a flexible and productive solution, ideal for building products and home furnishings (kitchens, bathrooms, etc.).

The company has specific and complex
needs and was looking for an advanced multi-disk cutter that could easily and
quickly combine inclined and non-orthogonal contour cut-outs for construction
jobs with more complex cuts typical of applications for the furnishing sector.
SmartFlex, thanks to the ability to make sloping cuts on a variety of product
types, and to easily use drilling tools, is an "excellent, fast and accurate tool".
Remote programming of the machine
without on-site human intervention is another essential advantage which
facilitates the production process.
Compared to previous machines,
SmartFlex is steps ahead both from the mechanical point of view (higher speed
and precision) as well as for the handling of materials.
The machine at some moments "seems to be dancing: the combined movements
of spindles and disks are fast, harmonious and accurate".
Thanks to on-the-field experience and
Breton collaboration, the company will be able to further refine the software
to optimize slab load / unload and tool change cycles, and to further enhance
the overall cutting optimization algorithm.
“Breton S.p.A., since 1963 innovation and technology at the service of
the operators”.
