About Materials Marketing

Since 1965 our passion has been bringing your design dreams to life through the singular, timeless beauty of natural stone. We quarry, cut, carve, polish, and make mosaics and other custom pieces from stone—the earth’s oldest and most durable building material. By embracing the striations and color variations that naturally occur in stone, we make each piece a unique product.

Our Materials

Natural stone’s distinctive combination of durability, warmth, and beauty has inspired artisans throughout the ages. We manufacture a wide variety of architectural stone and flooring products in numerous colors, sizes, and finishes, giving you the flexibility to achieve your design intent.
Choose from the following stone materials, all of which are available in tile and mosaics as well as for architectural elements, such as moldings and balustrades:

• Limestone: Seen in breathtaking landmarks from Niagara Falls to the Pyramids of Egypt, limestone is versatile and readily available. This stone is ideal for surface coverings as well as elaborate carvings.

• Travertine: From the Roman Colosseum to more modern projects, such as the Farnsworth House in Plano, Illinois, and the Getty Center in Los Angeles, travertine has been a favorite building material for centuries.

• Marble: As the prized medium for Greek and Roman sculptors and architects, marble has become a cultural symbol of tradition and refined taste. Its varied and colorful fissures and veining make a stunning statement.

Our Process

Whether you require new construction, renovation, or decoration, we have you covered from floor to ceiling, bath to kitchen, and foyer to fountain. While our manufacturing facilities are equipped with the latest CNC and stonecutting technologies for use on large projects, we also employ artisan masters of traditional hand-carving techniques who specialize in the most intricate details.

Our highly trained sales representatives will guide you through the selection process and show you how to integrate our products to bring your idea to fruition. We also use computer-aided design (CAD) software in every showroom so you can see your project on the screen and make adjustments before it’s set in stone.

Our Facilities

As America’s oldest and largest fully integrated stone manufacturer, we control the quality of our work from the quarry to the client. Because we own and operate our own quarry and manufacturing facilities, every product comes direct from our factories through our showrooms to your home or business. And because our manufacturing facilities are in North America (Texas and Hidalgo, Mexico), domestic lead times and quick-ship programs are available to meet your timetable. Product is also warehoused and shipped from our headquarters in San Antonio, Texas.

Our Professionals

Our showroom locations are staffed with the best design consultants to help make your project a reality, and we work with the leading architects, designers, and builders in each market. Our design and engineering teams can handle everything from custom shop and assembly drawings to full submittal packages for all types of projects. And our experienced architectural support team can help with project management across the construction, design, and architectural disciplines. We can also provide design and support services from our San Antonio customer support team for those who don’t live near a Materials Marketing showroom location.

Our Promise

We are dedicated to the aspirations of each and every client. Our goal is to create your vision, whether it is the perfect fireplace, a personalized bath, a whimsical hearth, a custom gazebo, or a mosaic with your family crest. Our extensive portfolio demonstrates our range of styles, from period and classical to sleek and modern. If you can dream it, we can create it.

Above all, we understand that you are passionate about the look and feel of your home or space. We share that passion by offering only the very best—from our family to yours.
