When arriving home from a long day of work, the first thing most of us probably do is throw our keys on the counter along with the million other things in our hands, and kick our feet up for a brief moment. We literally unload the burdens of that day on our kitchen counters, putting work and stress behind us. Thanks to Da Wing Trading, there is an opportunity to learn about the significance of quality countertops, and to understand the importance that they play in our everyday lives.

Starting in 2010 as a warehouse, the company quickly evolved in 2011 as a cabinet and countertop supplier under owner Yue Fung Kwan. “The owner’s main reason to start was to make a business for his sons to run,” said Da Wing Trading manager Harry Kwan.

This family-run business offers various types of countertops, but specializes in granite, priding itself on the one-of-a-kind features a granite countertop can add to a kitchen or bathroom. Kwan explained that along with durability and heat resistance (no burn marks), “each countertop will have its own character,” since not every granite slab is alike. Another benefit to having a granite countertop, is not having to worry about scratching the surface with your after-work-key-drop-off, because granite resists scratching from metals, including pots and pans. Da Wing Trading also supplies quartz and marble, if that is what you prefer.

To go along with the natural beauty of your countertops, Da Wing Trading also supplies cabinets of all-wood construction, no press wood or thermofoil, which means they are all-natural cuts of wood with no generics added, ensuring quality and durability. The company also offers full-sized doors for your cabinets.

Although Da Wing Trading mainly focuses on cabinets and countertops, Kwan shared that the company also sells related products, such as sinks for bathrooms and kitchens. Sinks come in various shapes and sizes and are, “18-gauge and 16-gauge stainless steel.” The company’s sinks are undermount designed, meaning they are fitted under countertops. Da Wing Trading also provides 3/4-inch plywood for construction purposes at comparable prices, or if you’re in need of subsurface material for your countertops.

Kwan summarized Da Wing Trading’s goals as a company with this assurance, “to provide quality products and services for our customers.” So, don’t take your countertops for anything less than granite and choose Da Wing Trading to help take the burden off of your day.
