Quick Answer
SGS enforces rigorous, five-point quality control metrics validating slab thickness, gloss reflection, and shipping safety at Jigani.
In-Depth Overview
Our stone specialists visit major quarries globally and across India (Andhra Pradesh, Rajasthan, Karnataka) to inspect blocks. We look for micro fissures, irregular quartz grouping, and color drift. Once raw blocks are processed, we catalog slabs sequentially from the same block so you can achieve book-matched layouts with seamless veins.
Advantages
- ✓Strict thickness calipers check at 20mm/30mm corners.
- ✓Laser alignment checks for slab flatness and zero-warp certification.
- ✓Sequenced block grouping to guarantee pattern flow.
Considerations
- •Rigorous selection filters out up to 90% of lower grade quarried slabs.
