Various factors are effective in determining the price of any product or service. Determining the price of marble slabs is no exception.

In general, material, thickness and dimensions play an important role in determining the price of marble slabs. For example, the price of marble slabs is higher for larger dimensions. In the following, we will deal with the effective parameters in calculating the price of marble slabs.

Different types and degrees of marble

Obviously, stones, including marble slabs, like any other commodity, have different types and degrees.

Like many goods, marble has both internal and external types. Internal or external production is one of the determining factors in the price of marble slabs.

Apart from this factor, the quality rating of marble is also very important. The grades available for this stone are super, premium, first grade and second grade. Each of these ratings will be effective in calculating the price of marble slabs.

Factors influencing the calculation of the price of marble slabs, apart from the type (external and internal) and stone grades, the following factors are also considered in calculating the price of marble slabs:

Quality

Stone quality stone is one of the most important factors in calculating marble slabs. The quality of the stone is determined by analyzing the stone.

Based on this analysis, it is determined what the standard of marble slabs is. Depending on the characteristics of the stone, such as the amount of water absorption of the stone, its tensile, compressive and abrasion resistance of the stone, its weight and porosity and other important factors in the use of the stone, its quality is determined.

From here, the importance of stone analysis is also determined, because by having stone analysis, we can be sure that the price of marble slabs is fair.

Marble slab color and design

Color and design play a significant role in increasing the price of marble slabs. Marble is available in a variety of colors. The colors of marble are white to red and include beige, brown, pink, black, green, and so on.

The more specific the color of the choice, the higher the price of marble slabs.

Thickness and dimensions of marble

The thickness and dimensions of the marble are directly related to its price. This means that the larger the thickness and dimensions of the stone, price will be increase.

The impact of dimensions on the price of slab stone is more important because in general, large dimensions of slab stone are more valuable and its price is higher.

In explaining the reason for this, slab stone has appropriate dimensions and regular geometric shape. Thickness, as mentioned, is directly related to price increases.

Common thicknesses of slab stones are 2, 3 and 4 cm. Among these thicknesses, slab stones with a thickness of 2 and 3 cm are more popular.

For cutting and processing

Another factor influencing the price of marble slabs and other types of stones is for cutting the stone and the type of processing.

This factor has a great impact on determining the price of stone, so that in stones that are the same in terms of other factors, such as  stone type, stone grade, color and design, thickness and dimensions, the cutting and processing can change the price.

Book maching

Book maching is the method of arranging slabs so that the patterns and veins of the stone are aligned symmetrically.

In book maching, slabs that are cut from a block are used and their design is the same. The surfaces that are placed next to each other are arranged in such a way that they give unique and beautiful maps. This process requires a lot of care and time.

That's why the price of marble slabs is rising. But that's not the end of the story. Then, according to the surface of the slab stone, a special processing is done on it. The result of this processing will be a glossy, matte or leathery surface.

On the other hand, slab stone payment in bookmaking is not done unilaterally, but intermittently.

In other words, the slabs are polished on opposite sides of each other, and when you're done, it's like you have an open book in front of you and you see a mirror image.

Each page is a symmetrical or mirror of another page. The result of bookmaking is a work of art, so you have to pay a lot of money for it.
