Stone slab has been used for decades as a cladding material for skyscrapers, office buildings and other commercial facades. Today, stone slab is the most popular solid surface countertop choice in residential kitchens and baths. Stone slab is available in all types of material including granite, marble, limestone, travertine, and even slate. Granite slab is most commonly used on kitchen countertops while the others can be used in bathroom vanities, office desks, transaction tops and other applications. Like any stone application, it is important to choose the correct product and to develop a maintenance program to insure the beauty and durability of your investment.

Purchasing stone slab for your installation can be overwhelming at first so here are a few things to remember and think about when making your choice. While some stones are very uniform in appearance, some have a great range of variation. Make sure you note the characteristics you like so your countertops will reflect the attributes you chose. Stone slabs are cut from blocks and then sliced like loaves of bread with gangsaws. While characteristics are generally consistent from piece to piece, they can vary. It is a good idea to have a fabricator in mind prior to selecting a slab.

Here are some popular colors for your choice:

Unload

Way 1:

you will need a forklift with a capacity of 5 tons and a gantry crane, or two forklifts, and a cloth sling or a loop steel cable, to unload slab bundles from the container. You can get the cloth sling to hitch the slab bundle from one end of the sling and the other end hitches a forklift, then you drive the forklift slowly to drag the slab bundle out. Be carefully when you do this and don't let the bundle tumble. When the slabs bundle is moved to the front door of the container, you need a gantry crane or another forklift to uphold the bundle then get it out. 

Way 2:

You need a forklift with a capacity of 5 tons and two cloth slings, or two loop steel cables. Hitch the bundle with two cloth slings on two ends of the bundle. Then put the forks of the forklift through the two cloth slings and get the slab bundle out of the container. Illustration similar to follows.    

Most materials are available in above thicknesses. Slab sizes vary depending on the material selected, however we always try to ensure the largest sizes possible.
