At BacklitSlab.com © Sia Stones, we understand the importance of protecting your beautiful natural stone slab during transport. That’s why we take meticulous care in packaging each slab to ensure it arrives at your destination safely and undamaged.
Wooden Crate Construction:
• Strength and Durability: We use high-quality, heavy-duty wooden crates specifically designed to withstand the rigors of shipping. These crates are constructed with thick, solid wood planks for optimal strength and support.
• Custom-Crafted for Your Slab: Each crate is custom-built to the exact dimensions of your slab, providing a snug fit and minimizing movement during transport.
• Reinforced Construction: For added security, critical points on the crate, such as corners and edges, may be reinforced with metal brackets or additional wood supports.
Foam Stuffing for Superior Protection:
• Impact Absorption: We strategically place high-density foam padding throughout the crate, absorbing shock and vibrations that can occur during transit.
• Surface Protection: Thick foam sheets are placed on all sides of the slab, creating a cushioned barrier that protects the delicate surface from scratches, abrasions, and other potential damage.
• Corner and Edge Support: Special attention is given to the corners and edges of the slab, where additional foam padding is used to provide extra protection against impacts.
Additional Packaging Measures:
• Moisture Protection: In some cases, depending on the specific type of stone and potential weather conditions during shipment, we may utilize moisture barriers to safeguard the slab against humidity or water damage.
• Signage and Labeling: Clear and informative labels are placed on the crate, indicating the contents and handling instructions (e.g., “Fragile,” “This Side Up”).
