20 GP Tile Leveling System Orders To Saudi Arabia Story Sharing
Being a premium tile installation solutions provider is not just about making money; it's also about maintaining relationships with customers, standing in their shoes and solving problems to achieve a win-win situation. We are pleased to share a story about our cooperation with our valued Saudi customer, Ms. K (pseudonym). Why did she choose to work with us to order a 20-foot container of tile leveling system despite such fierce market competition? Let's explore why.
Our partnership with our Saudi customer, Ms. K, began at a trade show in Saudi Arabia in 2024 and has since developed into a trusted supplier-customer relationship.
Despite fierce competition in the Saudi Arabian construction market, Ms. K has consistently chosen Ghonor Trims to meet her tile accessory needs. To support business growth in a challenging environment, Ms. K maintained close communication with our sales team, often calling late at night to discuss market strategies together.
We learned about the price sensitivity of the Saudi market and launched a comprehensive cost optimization effort. After internal leadership evaluation and consultation with raw material suppliers, the company successfully reduced costs and passed all the savings directly to Ms. K. After two weeks of detailed discussions, this partnership resulted in a pricing structure that was acceptable to both parties.
"We work side by side with our partners in a competitive market," said Mr J, a spokesperson for Ghonor Trims. "By restructuring our supply chain, we helped Ms. K strengthen her local market position without sacrificing quality and maintaining a close working relationship."
Ms. K expressed her gratitude for our active support: "This partnership is like a real alliance. Together, we are ready to capture a larger market share." She highlighted Ghonor's tile leveling system-designed for precision and efficiency-as a key competitive advantage for contractors.

FAQ
Q: What is a tile leveling system and why is it so important?
A: A tile leveling system is a set of tools (clip, wedge/cover plate, pliers) that eliminate warping (differences in height between adjacent tiles) during tile installation. It ensures a flat, seamless tile surface by applying even pressure as the adhesive cures. This is important for large-format tiles (e.g. tile slabs) and complex layouts, where manual leveling can lead to errors even for the most skilled workers. Warping can cause tripping hazards, unsightly conditions, and premature tile failure, so this system is important to achieve professional results.
Q: What are the main benefits for contractors?
A: Eliminates warping: Achieves flush tile surfaces that meet industry standards (e.g. ANSI A108.02). Saves time: 20-30% less adjustment labor compared to manual methods. Cost-effective: Minimizes tile breakage, rework, and material waste. Versatile: Suitable for ceramic, porcelain, natural stone, and ceramic tiles up to 20 mm thick.
Q: What tile sizes/thicknesses can these systems handle?
A: Most systems support: Joints: 0.5-5 mm (1/32 in). Tile thickness: 3-22 mm (e.g., thin tile to thick stone). Tile sizes: small (30x30 cm) to large (120x240 cm and up). For oversized tiles (>60x60cm), a wider wedge (e.g. 7/8 inch) is recommended for increased stability.
Q: How much faster is installation compared to traditional methods?
A: Contractors report 30-50% faster installation due to: Reduced need for manual adjustments. Immediate walk-on (no need to wait for adhesive to cure before grouting). Simplified alignment of complex patterns (herringbone, diagonal).
Q: Does the substrate still need to be perfectly leveled?
A: Yes! Tile leveling systems only address alignment between tiles, not substrate imperfections. Subfloor/wall surfaces must be finished to industry flatness standards (e.g. no more than 3mm deviation over 2 meters). Failure to complete surface preparation will void the warranty and may result in lifted edges.
Q: Can components be reused? What is the ratio of clips to wedges?
A: Wedges/covers: Typically reused 2-5 times. Clips: Single use (breaks after curing). Pliers: Long-term reusable. Ratio of clips to wedges: ~3:1 (e.g., 100 wedges are required for 300 clips). To save costs, sets are available (e.g., 500 clips + 200 wedges).
Q: How to evaluate system quality?
A: Clip/wedge breakage: Caused by over-tightening. Use torque-limiting pliers and train installers to master tension control. Chipped tiles when removing: Use a rubber mallet to remove clips along (not against) the grout line. Leveling inconsistencies: Make sure the clips match the tile thickness (e.g. 20mm clips for 12mm adhesive tiles).
Q: Do you offer custom services for bulk orders?
A: Yes! Ghonor can provide: Clip size: Custom thickness (0.5-8mm) and color (brand matching). Packaging: Private label, bulk packaging (e.g., 100 clips/pack) and combination sets. Flexible minimum order quantity: Custom orders start from 500 packs.
