Who does Coffee Wood Marble sell to?

We supply importers, stone distributors, fabricators, quarries and project developers who buy Coffee Wood Marble in slabs, tiles or cut-to-size pieces. We work on the China side: the stone is bought from the mine, processed in Shuitou or Yunfu, inspected before loading and shipped FOB.

What is the minimum order quantity?

One mixed container for a first order. There is no per-piece minimum, and slab quantities can be split across a book-matched pair or an offcut depending on the job.

What thickness and finish are available?

Slabs are typically 18 mm and 20 mm, with 15 mm and 30 mm available. Common finishes are honed, polished, flamed, brushed, sandblasted and leathered. Tiles are produced in standard and large formats.

How long does production take?

Seven to fifteen working days after the deposit, depending on the form and finish. Cutting, edge profiling and surface treatment are the steps that set the pace, not the stone itself.

Which ports do you ship from?

Xiamen, Quanzhou, Ningbo and Shanghai. We quote FOB to the port you nominate and compare forwarders before booking.

Do you publish a price list?

No. Natural stone moves with the block, the grade, the finish and the market, so a number printed on a website is out of date by the time it is read. Send us the form, thickness, finish, size and quantity and we quote FOB in writing against that specification.

Can we get a sample before ordering?

Yes. We cut a sample from the same block as your order - an A4 hand sample, a book-matched pair or an offcut - and ship it by courier. There is no obligation to order afterwards.

Answers / Methods

When should a project order Coffee Wood Marble?

Allow the normal stone lead time and order the material after the fixing design is settled, not before. The figure has to be chosen across the whole surface, so the layout has to exist before the slab is cut, and cutting cannot be undone.

A row of roughly six squared stone blocks standing in the sand at the foot of a quarry, each one cut flat and marked with a red number on its face. Behind them the quarry is cut into benches up the hillside, and wind turbines stand on the ridge above under a blue sky. — The cutting floor at the quarry, with the sawn blocks standing in the sand.

A quarry face with the beds marked up by hand in coloured paint. Reading from the top the marks say: 1 white vein, 2 elegant black, 3 grey wood grain, 4 coffee, 5 elegant black, 6 elegant black, 7 black and white, with the red outline around the overburden at the top of the face. Coffee Wood Marble is the fourth bed down. — The face of the quarry with the beds marked in the field.

Marble slabs standing upright on wooden frames inside the open back of a shipping container, strapped and ready to load — Slabs loaded for shipment.

The figures, and where each one comes from

Stage	What has to be decided	Lead time to allow
Specification	The form, thickness and finish	0 — this is free
Sourcing	The block and the grading	About two weeks to a month
Cutting and polishing	Slab selection and cutting	Three to four weeks
Shipping	Sailing from the Chinese port	Depends on the destination

Why it behaves the way it does

The order is not for stone, it is for a figure. The slab is chosen against the elevation, and the elevation is a drawing. Ordering before the drawing is settled means the figure is chosen by whatever happens to be at the front of the yard.

What these figures are, and what they are not

We publish no delivery promise, because a promise needs a destination, a quantity and a drawing. Send those three and we will give you a date.

Measured data sheets and test reports

If you are specifying this

We have not published products against this question yet. Send us the process, thickness and quantity and we will quote it against what we can actually form, rather than against a catalogue.
