A project is not a bigger order — it is a different problem. The risk is not price, it is the piece that arrives in a slightly different shade eighteen months after the first delivery, when the batch is gone. We press the whole job from one batch, hold the balance in our warehouse, and release it against your programme. Wholesale countertops and slabs, direct from the plant that presses them.
Hotels are the bulk of what we ship. The same batch discipline applies to any job where pieces are installed over months rather than days.

Guest bathroom vanity tops, reception counters and bar tops, matched across every floor.

One specification repeated across hundreds of units, released as the floors are handed over.

Reception counters and tea-point worktops where the finish has to match the lobby stone.

Bar tops and service counters in finishes that survive a commercial clean-down.

Display plinths and counters rolled out across a chain to one specification.

High-turnover units where replacement pieces have to match years later.
Natural stone changes from block to block. An engineered slab does not have to. For a project we press the full quantity in one run, so the last vanity top installed matches the first one, however long the programme runs.
That is the single thing a project buyer cannot get from a trader holding stock from three different production runs — and the reason a dye-lot problem on site costs far more than the slab did.
A hotel job is mostly the same few pieces repeated many times: hotel vanity tops for every guest bathroom, larger hotel bathroom countertops in the suites, and a handful of one-off pieces in the public areas. The repeated pieces are where a project goes wrong, so that is where our process starts.
Guest bathrooms. Hotel vanity tops are cut to one signed shop drawing per room type, with the basin cut-out, tap holes and upstand on the drawing. Every top of a room type comes from the same batch. See bathroom vanity tops.
Suites and public washrooms. Double-basin tops, longer hotel bathroom countertops and wall cladding are cut from the same batch as the guest rooms, so the shade does not change from one floor to the next.
Lobby, bar and restaurant. Reception counters, bar tops and table tops are one-offs, so each is drawn, signed and cut on its own. See reception counters, bar tops and stone tables.
Delivery against the programme. The full quantity is pressed in one run and held in our warehouse, then released in loads that follow the floors being fitted.
Accessible guest rooms in the United States are a separate piece type. Under section 606.3 of the ADA Standards, the front of the lavatory rim or counter surface sits no higher than 34 inches (865 mm) above the floor, so those hotel vanity tops usually have their own drawing. List them as their own room type and we cut, label and pack them separately.
For hotel stone fabrication on this scale, send the room-type schedule rather than a total area. The number of each piece decides the cutting plan, and the cutting plan decides the price of the hotel countertops.
| Minimum order | Stock slabs: one slab — check stock with us. Made to order: one container, up to five colours, thicknesses can be mixed. Finished countertops and cut pieces: no minimum, though freight on a small order is high. |
| Batch control | Full project quantity pressed in one run and reserved |
| Call-off | Produced in full, held in our warehouse, released against your programme |
| Fabrication | Cut to size in house, packed by room or by floor |
| Documentation | Per-batch dimensional report; photographs of each load before the container is sealed |
| Inspection | Third-party inspection accepted, at your cost or as agreed |
Per-batch dimensional reports, photographs of each load before the container is sealed, and third-party inspection if your client requires it, at your cost or as agreed. For projects we will hold the balance of a batch rather than release it to another buyer.
Finished pieces are cut and profiled in house — see countertop fabrication for what we do to a slab before it is crated.
To price wholesale countertops for a project we need the piece schedule or drawings, the material and finish, the quantity by type, the delivery programme and the port. We reply within 24 hours with availability, lead time and pricing, and for projects we will tell you plainly whether the programme is realistic before you commit to it.
For finished vanity tops and countertops cut to your schedule there is no minimum, though we flag the freight cost first when a lot is very small. Project slabs pressed to order come in container loads, each holding up to five colours in any mix of thicknesses. Single slabs are possible from stock, so ask us what is on the rack, and Printed Quartz also starts from one slab.
Yes. We press the full project quantity, hold the balance in our warehouse and release it in loads that follow the floors being fitted. For projects we hold the balance of a batch rather than release it to another buyer, so the last delivery comes from the same run as the first, however long the programme runs.
By pressing the whole job in one batch. Colour is consistent within a batch, while tops pressed later in another batch can show a slight shade difference, so we press the full quantity at once and reserve it. Every top of a room type is cut from that batch to one signed shop drawing, and suites, double-basin tops and wall cladding come from it too.
Either, but for project work we recommend finished pieces cut to the schedule and packed by room or by floor. Hotel vanity tops are cut to one signed shop drawing per room type, with the basin cut-out, tap holes and upstand on it. Accessible US rooms, where the counter sits no higher than 34 inches (865 mm), get their own drawing. We can supply the vanity cabinets as well.
Yes, whenever your client requires it; the buyer pays the inspection fee unless we agree otherwise. Alongside it we send a dimensional report for every batch and photograph each load before the container is sealed. Finished pieces are cut and profiled in house before crating, so the inspection covers them exactly as they ship.
The piece schedule or drawings, the material and finish, the quantity by type, the delivery programme and the port. For a hotel, send the room-type schedule rather than a total area, because the number of each piece decides the cutting plan and the cutting plan decides the price. We reply within 24 hours and tell you plainly whether the programme is realistic.
Yes. We are the factory, so contractors and distributors buy from the plant that presses the slab, not from a trader holding stock from three different production runs. We mainly supply fabricators, distributors and contractors; for a personal project, contact us first to check it fits.
