AKDO provides an amazing array of unique natural and manmade materials that inspire and bring traditional and modern designs into home and commercial projects. We design, import and distribute the most beautiful and luxurious surface covering products. Additionally, AKDO has developed a core color program, which ensures our most popular stone and glass colors are socked in an impressive variety of profiles. Therefore anyone working with AKDO products will have a comprehensive assortment of complimenting tiles, mosaics and finishing pieces available to them. AKDO’s sister company, Silkar, has exclusive rights to several quarries, in addition to numerous tenured industry vendor relationships. Ownership of quarries allows for several benefits.

Quick turnaround times and confidence that quantities will be fulfilled allow for installer to rest easy about planning for large ongoing projects. Finally, clients enjoy the substantial savings that stem from cutting the middleman out of purchasing.
