How sourcing works

One team from the RFQ to delivery on your site.

  3. 3 We deliver to your site Production follow-up, inspection before shipment, ocean freight, customs clearance and delivery, run by the same team.

Questions buyers ask

How do you keep the shade the same across an order?
Each area of the job is produced from one batch, the batch number is written on every carton, and spares come from the same batch. The inspector checks shade and caliber against the approved sample before shipping.
Which certificates do porcelain and ceramic tile need in my country?
The table on this page lists the rules we have sourced for each market, with the regulator’s page and the date we checked it. Your code official, importer or notified body has the final say. Name your market in the RFQ and we check the factory’s documents against it.
What import duty will I pay?
It depends on the commodity code and the country of import. This page shows the US and UK rates from their official tariff data. For any other country we work out the duty for your order and put it in the quote.
What is the minimum order?
Each factory sets its own minimum, usually per item, color or finish. Put your quantity in the RFQ and we quote only factories that will take it.
