About SlabHomeA matching service for Hevea wood slabs, built around the photo
Every slab is one of a kind, and the only way to judge it from abroad is a true photo of the piece itself. SlabHome connects you with Vietnamese workshops that will show you exactly that. We do the search. You and the workshop do the business.
What we do

- Select up to 3 workshopsChosen for the product, size and finish in your request. Not a broadcast to every workshop we know.
- Ask for photos firstWorkshops are asked to reply with photos of real slabs or tops, then samples and a quote.
