How does KES integrate environmental sustainability into its manufacturing processes?
Environmental sustainability is a core pillar of the KES Group’s operational philosophy. Our modern manufacturing facilities are designed with eco-friendly practices in mind, utilizing 100% natural raw materials that are fully recyclable. We employ advanced closed-loop water management systems that recycle and reuse the majority of the water consumed during production. Additionally, our energy-efficient kilns and strict emission control protocols significantly reduce our carbon footprint. Partnering with KES means choosing high-performance building materials that contribute positively to green building standards and a more sustainable planet.

What is the Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) for export shipments, and can we request physical samples before bulk ordering?
To optimize global shipping costs and ensure the safest possible transit for large stone slabs, our standard Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) typically starts at one 20-foot container (1×20′ FCL). However, we do offer flexible solutions for initial trial orders or specialized architectural projects. We highly encourage prospective partners to evaluate our superior quality firsthand. Therefore, we provide complimentary physical sample kits that can be shipped worldwide via international express couriers (freight costs for samples are generally arranged on the receiver’s account).

Does KES offer customization options or OEM/ODM services for large-scale commercial projects?
Absolutely. We understand that large-scale architectural and commercial projects often demand unique, tailored solutions. KES proudly offers comprehensive OEM and ODM services to meet your specific project needs. Clients can customize slab dimensions, thicknesses (ranging from ultra-thin for furniture to thicker profiles for countertops), surface finishes (such as matte, polished, or textured), and bespoke patterns (like exclusive marble or industrial cement looks). Our dedicated R&D and design teams collaborate closely with your architects from the conceptual phase to final production to ensure precise execution.

Are KES sintered stone products certified for international standards, and what ensures their premium durability?
Yes, all KES sintered stone products are manufactured in state-of-the-art facilities utilizing advanced European technology and strictly comply with global quality standards, including ISO and CE certifications. Our slabs are created by subjecting natural minerals to extreme pressure and high temperatures, resulting in an ultra-compact, non-porous surface. This rigorous process makes our sintered stone exceptionally resistant to scratches, deep abrasions, stains, UV rays, and extreme heat, making it an ideal, long-lasting solution for both heavy-traffic interior spaces and demanding exterior cladding.
5
What is the typical lead time for international orders, and how does KES handle shipping logistics?
For international orders, our standard production lead time generally ranges from 2 to 4 weeks, depending on the specific product lines, customization requirements, and order volume. Once production is complete, transit times will vary based on your destination port. KES partners with a network of reliable global freight forwarders to ensure secure A-frame packaging, optimized container loading, and safe transit. Furthermore, our dedicated export team will provide all essential shipping documents and customs paperwork to facilitate a smooth and efficient import process at your destination.
