Tile Supplier in Cape Town
Ceramic and porcelain tiles exported from Morbi, India to Cape Town, South Africa, in container quantities.
Tile exporter to Cape Town.
Lumina Tile supplies ceramic and porcelain tiles to buyers in Cape Town from our base in Morbi, Gujarat, the largest tile manufacturing cluster in India. Cape Town is the second commercial hub, with a design-led residential and hospitality renovation market, and the buyers we work with there are typically specification-driven showrooms and retail chains.
Cargo for Cape Town moves through Port of Cape Town, adjacent. Sea transit runs roughly 18 to 28 days from Mundra, often direct or with a single transhipment, so most buyers plan a reorder before the previous container clears. We quote on the Incoterm that suits your side, and the technical file travels with the shipment.
South Africa is the most industrialised market on this list and the only one with substantial domestic tile manufacturing, which is why imported tile faces active trade-remedy scrutiny here. We are straightforward about that: talk to our export desk before planning volume into this market so the current position is priced in rather than discovered at clearance.

Tile importer and distributor supply for Cape Town
Most of our Cape Town enquiries come from specification-driven showrooms and retail chains. If you are importing to stock and resell, we can hold artwork and run repeat lots so your shelf stays consistent between shipments. If you are buying against a specific project, we can produce to the drawing and grade the lot to the standard the specification asks for.
Bulk and container-load orders to Cape Town
We ship full containers to Port of Cape Town. A 20ft container carries roughly 1,100 to 1,400 square metres depending on size and thickness, and a 40ft roughly double that. Mixed containers across sizes, surfaces and designs are normal for us, so a first order to Cape Town does not have to be a single design.

Common questions
Do you supply tiles to Cape Town?
+
Yes. We export ceramic and porcelain tiles from Morbi, India to Cape Town in container quantities. Cargo routes through Port of Cape Town, adjacent, with sea transit of roughly 18 to 28 days from Mundra, often direct or with a single transhipment. We work with specification-driven showrooms and retail chains and quote on the Incoterm that suits your operation.
What is the minimum order for Cape Town?
+
One full container. A 20ft container holds roughly 1,100 to 1,400 square metres depending on tile thickness and size, and a 40ft holds roughly double. If you need several sizes or designs, we can mix them within one container rather than making you order a container of each.
How long does shipping to Cape Town take?
+
Sea transit runs roughly 18 to 28 days from Mundra, often direct or with a single transhipment, entering through Port of Cape Town. Production time is separate and depends on whether the design is in stock or being run for you. We confirm both dates at the quote stage rather than after you commit.
What documentation do you provide for import into South Africa?
+
National compulsory specifications are administered by the regulator and SANS standards apply commercially; trade-remedy measures currently affect ceramic tile of Indian origin, so we confirm the landed position with you before quoting. Every shipment travels with the packing list, commercial invoice, certificate of origin and the full technical file, so your customs broker and your customer both have what they need.
Can you match a tile we are already selling in Cape Town?
+
Usually. Send a photo and the dimensions and we will look for the closest design in the library. We hold the artwork for everything we produce, so once you have chosen a design, repeat orders match your first shipment rather than drifting shade to shade.
What sizes and finishes can you ship to Cape Town?
+
The full range: 49 sizes across eight categories from 5 x 25 cm subway up to 160 x 320 cm slabs, in 15 surface finishes, 6 to 20 mm thick. Available finishes vary by size, and the size chart on this page lists which surfaces each size is produced in.
