Ans.: We have 3 basic Quality Parameters in our stone products, you can choose any of them as per your budget and project suitability…the important thing here is we process all the 3 qualities in the same manner, IT IS just because of some NATURAL variations, we segregate the stones in 3 grades: 

  1. Premium first choice quality: The best stones are sold as premium first choice quality, this tends to be very good quality suitable for all types of constructions projects. In true sense the availablity of first choice material is always short from the qurries also and due to this demand-supply negative ratio, first choice materials are most expensive one, is mainly liked by our Australia, UK, Ireland and USA clients. No faults like line, pencil line, no shade variation, no patches, no bands, uniform pattern, we can supply this premium first choice quality stones.
  2. Standard quality:This is the highly demanding stone quality from all over the world, this quality materials are not so bad and not so good, they are of medium OK quality. This standard quality mateiral may have natural shade variation but no production faults at all, those variations can hardly be seen by a naked eye. This grade quality is mostly liked by the buyers because of price level that is not so high and the material also of the good quality.
  3. Commercial cheap quality: This type of materials' may have slightttt defects like small natural hairline cracks, maybe some blotches, thickness variation, wheel-mark in the corners, double shading, natural oil patch, BUT no-no-no cracks at all. They are not expensive and they are the hot favourite for low-budget flooring and wall cladding projects.
