Marble & Granite Design and Cutting

Natural stone has been a hallmark of timeless architecture and luxury interiors for centuries, and modern fabrication technology has only expanded the design possibilities. Forton General Trading offers a complete marble and granite service in the UAE, combining traditional stonecraft with CNC, waterjet, and edge-profiling technology to deliver bespoke stonework for residential, commercial, and hospitality projects. From kitchen countertops and vanity tops to grand feature walls, flooring inlays, and external cladding, our team manages every stage — from slab selection to final installation — with care, precision, and design sensitivity.

Sourcing the right stone is the first step in any successful project. Forton maintains relationships with reputable quarries and slab suppliers across Italy, Turkey, India, Brazil, and the Middle East, giving our clients access to a wide range of marbles, granites, quartzites, and engineered stones. We work with architects and designers to select slabs that match the design intent — taking into account vein patterns, colour, hardness, and finish — and arrange viewings or photographs of specific slabs before they are cut. For projects requiring bookmatching or sequential slab layouts, this hands-on selection process is essential to a successful outcome.

Once slabs are selected, our cutting and finishing workshop transforms them into finished elements using a combination of bridge saws, CNC routers, and abrasive waterjet cutting. CNC and waterjet technology allow us to produce intricate inlays, mosaic patterns, and complex profiles that would be impossible by hand, while traditional polishing techniques deliver the depth and lustre that natural stone is prized for. Edge profiling, honing, leathering, and antique finishes are all available, allowing us to match the surface treatment to the design and application.

Forton's marble and granite service extends well beyond the workshop. Our experienced templating teams visit site to capture accurate measurements, ensuring that countertops, cladding, and flooring fit precisely on installation day. Our installation crews are skilled in working with heavy and delicate stone alike, using appropriate lifting, adhesives, and support systems to deliver a flawless finish. We coordinate closely with main contractors and other trades to integrate stone installation smoothly into the broader project schedule, minimising disruption and protecting the work of others on site.

Architects, interior designers, hospitality groups, and high-end residential clients across the UAE choose Forton for stonework because we combine technical capability with genuine design partnership. We participate early in the design process when invited, advising on stone selection, panel layouts, joint design, and detailing to achieve both aesthetic and practical objectives. This collaborative approach often results in better outcomes, fewer site issues, and stone elements that elevate the finished space.

Partnering with Forton for marble and granite means choosing a single, accountable supplier for one of the most visible and valuable elements of your project. From sourcing and design through cutting, finishing, and installation, we manage every step with the care that natural stone deserves.
