As the premier natural stone, quartz and porcelain importer, wholesaler and distributor in New England for over 25 years, we have been travelling the world carefully selecting stones to display in our showrooms. We stake our reputation on selecting high-quality stones for homeowner, interior designers, fabricator and kitchen and bath dealers. We are passionate about the stones we offer, having built our business by establishing great relationships with quarry owners and reputable suppliers who offer the highest quality natural stone, quartz and porcelain.

Building these long-term relationships with our suppliers across the globe enables Boston Granite Exchange to identify stone trends, offer beautiful and unique new arrivals, including exotic stones, well in advance of other importers and offer a wide selection of stones that will stand the test of time.

We closely monitor and keep up-to-date on cutting-edge manufacturing methods used to produce quality quartz and porcelain. And we stay current on the latest fabrication innovations. We’re continuously asking questions and learning about our industry.

We take seriously the fact that the materials we sell are centerpieces of design in the homes and businesses where they are installed. This means that quality is paramount. So we do our homework and don’t jump at every new thing without research. We won’t source a new stone to display in our showrooms unless we are confident it meets our quality standards.

How Boston Granite Exchange Chooses Stones

For example, when porcelain was initially becoming more popular in the United States for kitchens, bathrooms and surrounds, Boston Granite Exchange was resistant to include porcelain in our inventory. Available porcelains were prone to chip easily and did not meet the quality standards that we expect to associate our brand and reputation with.  We continued to do our homework and research over several years before we selected Laminam porcelain to offer in our showrooms because it proved to be a superior porcelain product, meeting our standards for quality and durability and guaranteed by a lifetime manufacturer’s warranty.

We have applied this kind of research and due diligence to other stones, like quartz, to ensure that we only carry the very best. This has earned our reputation as a trusted importer and wholesaler of natural stones, quartz and porcelain. We stand behind our surfaces and support our customers, who are fabricators and kitchen and bath dealers throughout New England. When you are passionate about what you do, it shows. At Boston Granite Exchange, you can be assured that any stone or surface displayed in one of our showrooms has been carefully chosen. If it isn’t good enough for our homes, we will not offer it in our showrooms for your home.

In the coming weeks, we’ll be introducing an exciting new surface in our showrooms. You can be assured that we have done our research. Stay tuned for the announcement.

We invite you to plan a visit to one of our showrooms in Haverhill and West Bridgewater, MA. See all the stones we offer in person, learn more about them and decide which best suits your style and budget.

We look forward to seeing you.
