What we have learned shipping, cutting and installing large-format slabs — written for the fabricators, site teams and importers who have to live with the result.
Fabrication
Blade choice, water, feed rate and support — the four variables that decide whether a 12 mm slab cuts clean or chips at the exit edge.
Read the guide →Why sink cut-outs crack at square corners, the radius that prevents it, and edge profiles from eased to mitred waterfall.
