Among the various elements that have been integrated for the improvement of the temple, is the installation of a new flooring in Blanco Macael marble with perimeter banding in Rojo España and Negro Marquina marble, as a central carpet, which respects the layout of the floor of the Presbytery and the various chapels.
In addition, a marble plinth has been installed on the perimeter of the interior walls; a piece that connects to a ventilated chamber under the floor with grilles on the outside, the purpose of which was to allow air to circulate naturally to eliminate humidity in the floor and walls.
Within this complex process, it is not surprising that natural stone from the Sierra de Macael has been used, as it is, without a doubt, an element that adds value to the temple. In addition, know-how has played a very important role.
The technical office of the company Mármoles Gutiérrez Mena, responsible for the stone works, has collaborated jointly with the technical management of the project; a fact that has improved the stone fabrication process of all the architectural elements of the work, such as columns, altar, ambo and taping, among others. The Almeria-based company focuses its activity on the entire natural stone production process, from extraction to transformation and distribution.
