Marble Processing Software, From Block to Book-Match
Know-Now is the operating system for marble processing — block procurement, cutting and reinforcement planning, resin and polishing stages, book-match and vein tracking, and lot-level slab inventory in one platform.
Built for the realities of soft stone — reinforcement, resin filling, breakage risk, and slabs whose value depends on keeping the lot together.
Factory Overview
What Slows Marble Processings Down
These are the problems marble processors tell us about before they move to Know-Now.
Breakage eats the yield
Soft, veined marble cracks during handling and cutting, and without tracking you never learn where the losses happen.
Book-matched lots split up
Sequential slabs get separated in the yard, and a lot worth a premium as a set sells piecemeal at a discount.
Reinforcement and resin untracked
Mesh backing, resin filling, and reinforcement happen ad hoc, with no record of what treatment each lot received.
Capital stuck in slow lots
Distinctive marble sits for months because nobody sees ageing stock until stocktaking season.
Breakage has no address
You know the slab count came out low, but not whether it happened on the saw, in resin, in handling, or at loading.
Vein character is never written down
The thing that makes a marble lot valuable exists only in the memory of whoever last looked at it.
Process Delicate Marble with Full Traceability
Marble is softer, veined, and easily broken — reinforcement, resin, and book-matching make every slab unique. Know-Now gives marble processing units lot-level traceability, stage tracking, and vein-matched inventory in one platform.
Marble Block Procurement & Grading
Record quarry source, colour, vein character, dimensions, and grade for every marble block, linked to supplier payments.
Cutting & Reinforcement Planning
Plan cutting and reinforcement — mesh backing and resin — against orders and the fragility of each block.
Resin, Polishing & Stage Tracking
Monitor each lot through resin filling, polishing, and quality checks with real-time lot-level visibility.
Book-Match & Vein Tracking
Keep sequential, book-matched slabs grouped as a set so their premium value is never lost in the yard.
Lot-Level Slab Inventory
Track every marble slab individually — colour, vein, size, finish, and location — across your entire yard.
Dead Stock & Aging Alerts
Get alerted on slow-moving marble lots before ageing stock ties up your capital.
Know-Now in Your Day-to-Day
- 1
Marble block arrives and is graded
Quarry, colour, vein character, and grade are recorded at the gate. The block keeps that identity for life.
- 2
Cutting and reinforcement are planned
Cutting sequence and reinforcement are set against demand and the block's fragility, reducing breakage.
- 3
Slabs move through resin and polishing
Each lot is logged through resin, polishing, and inspection — with the treatment it received recorded.
- 4
Book-matched lots stay together
Sequential slabs are grouped as a set in inventory, protecting the premium of a matched lot.
- 5
Yield and cost close the loop
Output is compared against block input to reveal true recovery, breakage, and cost per square foot.
Built Around Marble Processing Operations
The parts of the platform that carry the day-to-day work of this business.
Marble Block Grading
Quarry, colour, vein character, and grade recorded at the gate, so a block's fragility is known before it reaches the saw.
Resin & Reinforcement Control
Mesh backing, resin filling, and reinforcement handled as defined stages, so every lot carries a record of its treatment.
Book-Match Set Management
Sequential slabs kept grouped in their original order, so a matched lot keeps the premium it only has while intact.
Breakage & Yield Analytics
Losses recorded at the stage they occur, turning a vague shortfall into a pattern you can trace to a cause.
Vein & Colour Records
Vein character captured per slab, so a feature-wall or large book-matched enquiry is answered from a screen, not a walk through the yard.
Set, Piece & Area Pricing
Price by square metre, by piece, or by matched set — because a book-matched lot and a single slab are different products.
Marble Processing FAQs
Yes. Sequential slabs from the same block can be grouped as a book-matched set in inventory, so the lot stays together and keeps its premium instead of being sold off piecemeal.
