Monday, 24 March 2008 |
AUSTIN, Tex. – A group of independent fabricator shops is taking on larger competitors with a new collective identity ... and its own line of stone.
The Artisan Group™ launched the Artisan Stone Collection™, which carries the industry’s first comprehensive lifetime warranty. The Artisan Stone Collection is offered exclusively by the group’s members.
Artisan Group members represent a select group of national fabricators who share a singular vision: to set a new standard for quality and craftsmanship in the granite-countertop industry.
“We combine decades of experience with the world’s best granite, the latest technologies and unsurpassed customer service to ensure that our customers have confidence in their granite countertops,” said Don Hinckley, Artisan Group board member.
All Artisan Group members must meet specific criteria, including solid industry experience; accreditation by the Marble Institute of America; a solid quality and service reputation in their respective market areas; sound and ethical business practices; and the use of the latest technologies for fabrication and product scheduling.
The group’s block purchasing allows them to offer a wide variety of colors from the basics to exotics.
Every Artisan countertop is sealed with the group’s exclusive Firstline™ Sealer.
