Cosentino brought Gul Avenue to life with a spectacular LED lion dragon dance, an opera performance, an enormous pan of paella and the launch of a seductive new collection. It all marked the opening of Cosentino’s new regional logistic centre.
July 25th, 2017
Cosentino has opened a brand new facility at 22 Gul Avenue. Spanning 35,000 square feet, this new facility serves as office headquarters for Cosentino Asia and as a logistics hub for the Southeast Asia region.
“Cosentino recognises the immense potential in Singapore and the region, and we are excited to commit to continuing our growth and development here,” says Ross Cameron, Asia Director at Cosentino. He adds, “The investment in the new Cosentino facility here in Singapore is highly strategic and in line with our company’s direction.”
The facility houses Cosentino’s very own delivery vehicles, hosts classroom spaces for staff training, and features product displays. In addition to new staff members, the facility will house over 10,000 slabs from the Cosentino range, including the Silestone® Quartz, Dekton® and Sensa brands.
The opening was attended by key figures from Cosentino as well as more than 300 industry friends. A 35-killogramme pan of paella, prepared by chef Edward Esmero of My Little Spanish Kitchen, gave guests a little taste of Spain. The evening’s entertainment included a performance from opera singer John D’Ancona, as well as mesmerising LED lion and dragon dances by Wong Loo Choh See Chee Choong Association.
Consentino also unveiled a new collection of Silestone during the launch. Named Silestone Eternal Collection, the collection comprises six new colours that pay homage to some of the most sought-after marbles in the world. This collection is manufactured using Cosentino’s patented N-Boost technology that produces a greater colour intensity, endurance and ease of maintenance.
The company hopes that the new logistics hub, along with the already established City Centre at 34/35 Duxton Road, will contribute to sales growth and provide the best stone supply service in the region. The new facility is open to the public by appointment.
