A PRACTICAL BUYER’S REFERENCE

Read for the decision you need to make

This library is organised around the work of buying material. Begin with the unresolved decision in your enquiry, then move to a guide that helps create the drawing, reference or record needed to resolve it.

01

If you are still building a shortlist

A studio palette of marble, travertine, cement and wood-look surface samples
AI-generated design illustration; not a supplied product or completed project.

Read about finish selection before comparing a long list of models. The next useful step is often a clearer visual requirement, not another product image. Once the direction is agreed, the format and thickness guide helps connect that choice to the intended pieces.

  • Use finish guidance to organise a sample comparison.
  • Use dimensional guidance when a layout begins to take shape.
02

If an order is approaching release

If an order is approaching release
Planning illustration only; not a construction drawing or supporting evidence.

Use the drawing and test-report guides to check whether important questions have an answer. After that, the delivery and receiving guides help carry the approved specification into a practical handover. Reading can support a review, but project decisions still need the appropriate professionals.

  • Keep guide notes with the current order revision.
  • Turn outstanding questions into named follow-up actions.

Questions buyers ask

Do I need to read every guide before sending an enquiry?

No. Choose the topic that blocks your next decision. A first enquiry can identify what is still unknown and ask for the relevant clarification.

Are the guides project-specific installation instructions?

They are purchasing and coordination references. Use the selected product’s technical documents and the responsible project team for installation design.
