How stone buyers select
Marble and granite are selected visually and then verified technically. An architect or fabricator needs to see actual slabs — pattern, colour variation, finish — not a generic sample photograph, because variation is the entire point of natural stone. They then need technical data, available volume, block or slab dimensions, and export terms. Most suppliers publish a few stock images and a phone number, so specification work goes elsewhere.
What we build for a stone supplier
First, a catalogue of real blocks and slabs with high-quality photography, dimensions and finish options, updated as stock changes. Second, technical data per stone: density, absorption, strength, suitability by application. Third, volume and export terms, including packing and shipping, since most serious demand is not local. Fourth, project enquiries capturing quantity, finish and deadline, so quoting happens once instead of across a week of messages.
