Stone Countertops, Cut in Our Factory in Guangdong

We make stone countertops in Guangdong, with our slab plants and fabrication line on the same site. We make quartz, cultured marble and porcelain in our plants and cut granite and marble from blocks we buy, then fabricate the finished tops — cut to your drawings, with the cut-outs, edge profiles and backsplashes done here and packed for container shipping. As a countertop manufacturer we mainly supply fabricators, cabinet makers, distributors and project buyers; for a personal project, contact us first to check it fits. Installation is not part of our standard supply: on large projects we can discuss arranging it to help the job get done, but we cannot install on regular orders.

Where the countertop is going decides how we cut it

A worktop, a vanity top, a reception counter, a bar and a table top are cut from the same slabs in the same workshop, but almost nothing else about them is the same — the thickness, the edge, the supports, the tolerances and the packing all change. Pick the one you are buying.

Types of stone countertops: five materials, one manufacturer

As a countertop manufacturer we make quartz, cultured marble and porcelain in our plants, and cut granite and marble from blocks we buy. Because all five go through the same fabrication line, the recommendation you get from us is not a pitch for whichever one we happen to hold. Tolerances on all five follow the Dimension Stone Design Manual published by the Natural Stone Institute, the reference the trade works to.

MaterialMade byWhere it is the right answerWhat to watch
QuartzOur plantKitchens and anywhere the client wants no maintenance. Non-porous, Mohs 6–7, colour consistent within a batch, so twenty kitchens ordered together match.Keep hot pans off above 150 °C; avoid constant direct sun.
PorcelainOur plantOutdoor kitchens, shower walls, large tables, and the only material here that takes a hot-pressed integral bowl. Water absorption under 0.1%, UV stable.Thin material — handling and packing matter more.
Cultured marbleOur plantProjects at volume. Chip size, colour mix and background are fixed per design, so forty hotel rooms read as one.Mohs 3–4. Vanities, shower walls and light-use counters rather than heavy kitchen work.
GraniteCut from bought blocksNatural stone, Mohs 6–7, takes hot pans straight off the hob.Seal it once a year. Every slab differs — we photograph the actual slabs before they ship.
MarbleCut from bought blocksWhere appearance decides. Nothing imitates real marble on a vanity or a feature counter seen up close.Etches from lemon, vinegar and wine. Specify honed for a kitchen, or accept a patina.

What we do to a slab before it ships

Buying finished tops from a countertop manufacturer that fabricates, rather than buying slabs and cutting them yourself, moves four operations from your workshop to ours. That is the whole proposition, so it is worth being specific about what those four are.

Countertops and vanity tops cut to size, laid out on the workshop floor

Cut to your drawings

Send a drawing, a cabinet schedule or a template file. You get back a cutting plan showing how the pieces sit on the slab, where the joints fall and what the offcut looks like. Priced per piece, not per square metre.

Double sink cut-out in a stone countertop on the fabrication floor

Cut-outs and holes

Sinks, hobs, tap holes, ice wells, power grommets. Internal corners are radiused, never cut square, and the narrow sections left beside an opening are braced before the piece is crated.

Row of cut stone pieces showing their profiled edges

Edges

Fifteen profiles cut in house, from an eased arris to a laminated bullnose built up to 40 mm. Name the profile on the drawing, or send a section through the edge and we will match it.

Cut stone pieces strapped and packed in a timber export crate

Packing for eight weeks at sea

Breakage on arrival is the largest avoidable cost in importing fabricated stone. Pieces stand on edge in fumigated timber crates, foam-wrapped, with plywood between them and timber bracing across every opening.

Buying wholesale from the factory

Most of what we ship goes to companies that resell or install it — fabricators topping up their own capacity, cabinet makers who want tops to arrive with the cabinets, distributors holding stock, and contractors buying for one project. Here is what that means in practice.

A small load of crated slabs inside a shipping container

No fixed minimum, but freight decides

There is no minimum order quantity on finished tops. What limits a small order is shipping — below roughly a pallet, freight and handling per piece cost more than the stone, and we will tell you so before you order.

Crates of different sizes loaded together in one container

Mix in one container

Materials, colours, thicknesses and product types share one container; made-to-order slabs can mix up to five colours. A load can hold kitchen tops, vanity tops, a reception counter and loose slabs at the same time.

Personal projects: ask us first

We mainly supply fabricators, distributors and contractors; for a personal project, contact us first to check it fits. A private buyer without a fabricator almost always hits a problem at installation, and we cannot stand behind work we did not template or fit.

Stock, and re-orders

We hold over 10,000 m² of slabs in ready stock, so a repeat order in the same design can often ship from the same batch. Tell us the original order number and we will check the batch before confirming.

Inspection before loading

Every piece is measured against the signed drawing and photographed. You get the report before the container leaves, not after it arrives.

1 · Send what you have

A drawing, a cabinet schedule, or a sketch with dimensions. If you only know the material and rough sizes, that is enough to start a conversation.

2 · We return a shop drawing

Piece sizes, joint positions, cut-out dimensions, edge profile and the cutting plan on the slab. This is the document everything else is checked against.

3 · You sign it

Nothing is cut before the drawing comes back signed. Changes after signing restart the thirty days — that is not a penalty, it is how long the work takes.

4 · Production, inspection, loading

Thirty days from the signed drawing. Every piece measured and photographed against its drawing number before the container is loaded.

Questions buyers ask before the first order

Engineered stone countertops are cut from slabs made in a plant rather than from quarried blocks; artificial stone means the same thing. Quartz is the main type, roughly 90% ground quartz bound with a polymer resin, and ours rates Mohs 6–7 with water absorption within 0.04%. Cultured marble, at Mohs 3–4, is the resin-bound choice for vanities and shower walls. We press both in our plants, along with porcelain, and cut granite and marble from blocks we buy.

For a kitchen worktop, quartz is our default: hard, no sealing, and consistent within a production batch. The best stone still depends on the job, and since we fabricate all five on one line we have no reason to push one. Porcelain is the choice near heat and outdoors. Granite suits a client who wants quarried stone for heavy use. Marble is where appearance decides, and cultured marble suits vanity tops and shower walls in volume.

No. Quartz countertops are engineered: natural quartz is ground and bound with resin in a plant. In everyday use the difference is upkeep and consistency. Our quartz needs no sealing and keeps its colour within a production batch, while granite is sealed once a year, marble etches from lemon, vinegar and wine, and every natural slab differs. Granite takes hot pans straight off the hob; keep quartz away from pans above 150 °C.

Sintered stone is porcelain slab under another name; the Chinese national standard and the US market now use the porcelain name, and we make both porcelain and quartz in our plants. Choose porcelain for outdoor kitchens, shower walls and large tables: it absorbs under 0.1% water and is UV stable, though it is thin, so handling and packing matter more. Choose quartz for kitchen worktops; at Mohs 6–7 against 5 it is harder, but keep hot pans above 150 °C off it.

Yes, wholesale is most of what we do. We mainly supply fabricators, distributors and contractors; for a personal project, contact us first to check it fits. Finished countertops have no minimum, but below roughly a pallet the freight per piece costs more than the stone, and we tell you so. Stock slabs start from one slab, so check stock with us; made-to-order slabs start at one container mixing up to five colours.

Stone countertops split into natural and engineered. Natural stone is cut from quarried blocks: granite, the economical choice at Mohs 6–7; marble, where appearance decides; and others such as soapstone and quartzite. Engineered slabs are made in a plant: quartz for kitchens, porcelain, also sold as sintered stone, for outdoor kitchens and heat, and cultured marble for vanities. We fabricate granite, marble and the three engineered types on one line.

Natural granite and marble can be re-polished once they dull: a stone restorer wet-sands the surface with fine abrasives, then repolishes and seals it, and polished marble usually needs this every two to three years. Quartz is different. It leaves our presses with its finish set and never needs polishing, and quartz makers advise against applying polish at all. That is why we ask you to choose polished or honed when you order.

Warm water, a mild dishwashing liquid or a neutral stone cleaner and a soft cloth suit every stone; rinse and dry afterwards. What to keep off depends on the stone. Lemon, vinegar and wine etch marble, scouring powders can scratch natural stone, and quartz should be kept from oven cleaners, paint strippers and very high or low pH products. Granite also needs resealing about once a year to stay stain resistant.
