Before you buy

How to check what you are buying

  1. Thickness

    Ask for the full thickness and the thickness of any glass layer.

  2. Cut edge

    Look at a cut edge. A solid slab is white all the way through.

  3. Slab size

    Ask for the slab size. Solid slabs come in large formats.

  4. Sample

    Ask for a sample and test it yourself.

FAQ

Nano glass questions

Is nano crystallized glass the same as crystallized glass?

Yes, in trade use. Nano crystallized glass and nano glass are sales names for solid crystallized glass slabs. “Nano” is a name, not a measured property.

Is nano white the same as your pure white slab?

Nano white usually means a pure white solid slab. Compare the thickness, size and finish with our white slab specifications.

Do you make composite tiles?

No. We only make solid slabs.

Can I compare samples?

Yes. Request samples and tell us the finish you need.
