Polished Porcelain Tile Supplier in Canada – Factory Direct from Contigo Ceramics
Why Buy Polished Porcelain Tile Direct from China Instead of Local Distributors in Canada?
For Canadian importers and distributors, every margin point matters. Local distributors in Canada often mark up polished porcelain tile by 30–50% after adding warehousing, brokerage, and retail overhead. By sourcing directly from Contigo Ceramics—a factory in Foshan, China—you eliminate middlemen and secure factory-direct pricing on every container. Our FOB Foshan/Huangpu port terms allow you to control shipping, customs clearance, and final delivery costs, giving you a competitive edge in the Canadian market. With ISO 10545 and ANSI A137.1 certifications, our polished porcelain tile meets the same international standards demanded by Canadian specifiers—yet at a fraction of the price you would pay through local channels.
Factory Advantages: MOQ, FOB Pricing & Quality Control
- MOQ: One 20-foot container per SKU. We understand that Canadian distributors need to test the market before committing to large volumes. Our low MOQ lets you start with a container and scale up as demand grows.
- FOB Pricing: All prices are quoted FOB Foshan or Huangpu port. You pay the factory price plus inland logistics to the port. No hidden fees, no markups.
- Quality Control: Every batch undergoes rigorous in-house testing to ISO 10545 (ceramic tile test methods) and ANSI A137.1 (American National Standard for Ceramic Tile). We provide physical test reports for water absorption, modulus of rupture, and surface abrasion—documentation your Canadian clients will require for commercial projects.

Frequently Asked Questions (For Canadian Importers)
Q: Do you have a Canada-specific certification or CSA approval?
A: Our polished porcelain tile is manufactured to ISO 10545 and ANSI A137.1, which are the foundation standards accepted by Canadian building codes. We do not carry CSA certification, but our test reports are recognized by most architects and engineers. For large commercial projects, we can arrange third-party testing by an accredited lab.
Q: What is your payment term for Canadian buyers?
A: Standard terms are 30% T/T deposit, balance against copy of shipping documents. For repeat customers or letter of credit (L/C) at sight, we can negotiate. We also accept T/T from Canadian banks with no issues.
Q: Can I get samples before placing a container order?
A: Absolutely. We offer free sample boards (300×300mm) for all standard colors and sizes. Shipping via DHL/FedEx to Canada takes 4–6 days. You pay only the courier cost—samples are complementary.
