📌 Why Choose Vietnam for Quartz Slabs?
In recent years, Vietnam has emerged as a leading alternative source for quartz slabs, especially for U.S.-based distributors, wholesalers, and countertop fabricators seeking:
- High-quality products with consistent color, hardness, and finish
- Competitive FOB pricing, often lower than China or India
- Anti-dumping duty advantages (compared to Chinese-origin quartz)
- Reliable export capabilities with improving logistics and supply chains
For businesses impacted by tariffs, shipping delays, or inconsistent quality from other regions, Vietnam presents a compelling solution.
📦 Step-by-Step: How to Import Quartz Slabs from Vietnam
1. Identify a Trusted Vietnamese Manufacturer
Start by researching certified quartz slab factories. Look for:
- International certifications (e.g., NSF, SGS, CE)
- Product portfolio (Carrara, Calacatta, Pure White, Sparkling Quartz, etc.)
- Customization capabilities (cut-to-size, countertop fabrication, color matching)
- Factory size, export experience, and production capacity
2. Request Samples and Product Catalogs
Before committing to a large order:
- Request physical samples to check color consistency and surface finish
- Ask for a full product catalog with dimensions, thicknesses, and technical specs
- Confirm lead time and color availability
✅ Check for UV resistance, stain resistance, water absorption rates, and flexural strength.
3. Negotiate MOQ, Price & Payment Terms
Vietnamese quartz suppliers often offer flexible:
- MOQ: as low as 1 container (~70 slabs)
- FOB pricing: based on color, thickness, and finish
- Payment terms: 30% deposit, 70% balance before shipment (or via LC for large orders)
🔍 Don’t forget to ask about volume discounts and packaging details (crate strength, protective films, labeling).
4. Check for U.S. Compliance & Certifications
To ensure your products clear U.S. customs smoothly:
- Confirm if slabs are non-Chinese origin (for AD/CVD compliance)
- Request the Certificate of Origin and Bill of Lading
- Ensure factory provides test reports for NSF or SGS if required by your market
📄 Your customs broker will thank you for complete paperwork!
5. Book Freight & Coordinate Logistics
Most quartz slab factories in Vietnam offer FOB or CIF Ho Chi Minh (HCM) port terms. You’ll need to:
- Hire a reliable freight forwarder experienced in heavy containers
- Confirm container type (20ft vs. 40ft HQ), load weight, and protection
- Track the estimated shipping time (usually 25–35 days to West Coast USA)
🛃 Prepare import documentation for U.S. Customs clearance ahead of arrival.
6. Plan for Unloading, Storage, and Distribution
Once your quartz slabs arrive in the U.S.:
- Arrange for forklift unloading at your warehouse
- Inspect for any transport damage
- Prepare for local distribution to contractors, showrooms, or fabricators
💡 Consider using 3PL services for temporary warehousing if you're new to container import.
