🪦 Simple Memorials with Deep Meaning

In today's evolving funeral landscape, cremation has become increasingly popular, shifting the demand toward smaller, minimalist grave markers. The most sought-after format is a 6 cm thick granite plate, typically sized at 25–40 square centimeters, engraved with the name, birthdate, and date of death of the deceased. These plates are often accompanied by simple stone urns, which usually have no inscriptions.

Despite their simplicity, these markers carry significant emotional and cultural value. Municipal cemeteries, often managed by local governments, allow some flexibility in design—ranging from granite crosses and marble angels to engraved marble books and granite curbstones with decorative inlays.

💷 Affordable Yet Durable

The price of such tombstones is typically under £100, making them a popular option for families seeking quality without high costs. Although this segment of the market isn’t highly profitable, it remains steady due to high demand in Europe, Asia, and the Middle East. The UK market alone sees an estimated £7 million in annual sales from these small memorials.

🌍 Global Reach of Chinese Granite Exports

Recognizing this growing opportunity, Chinese granite manufacturers have become key players in the small grave marker market. According to export data:

“The Middle East, Europe, and Asia are all our exporting countries, with a yearly export value of 2 million yuan, of which South Korea has the largest export volume.”

Factors such as depletion of local stone resources, strict environmental regulations, and rising production costs in developed nations have led to increased reliance on China's abundant resources and cost-effective processing.

📏 Designed to Meet Cemetery Regulations

Many municipal and private cemeteries now impose strict height restrictions, often between 70 cm and 130 cm, to ensure uniformity and facilitate maintenance. Our small granite grave markers are crafted to comply with these rules while offering customizable options to reflect individual preferences and cultural traditions.
