Stones are understood to be hard in
nature but before a customer get's his first hands on them, they have
been subjected to harsh treatment as they travel miles through rough
seas. Hence it is fundamental & essential that they are securely
packed to surpass all the harsh treatment.
We as a manufacturer and processors of stones give value to our
production and hardwork of workers, we would not like that our stones
break away while in transit. In order to protect these stones from
breakage or even damage (like staining, etc.) our dedicated packaging
team ensures the right procedures while packing stones in wooden crates.
 Standard
Packaging
Each wooden crate is first inlined with polythene to protect stones
from staining from wooden planks or from any other feature, then it is
inlined with foam-sheet along horizontal planks to protect stones
against damage from wooden planks or nails. This is a fundamental
preliminary packing used for all our wooden crates irrespective of the
type of stone packed.
 Packaging
of pavers
In case of outdoor stones like flagstones, landscaping stones, circles,
etc which are basically rough stones, they are directly stacked in the
wooden crates. Any loose gaps are tightened with filling material like
wood, hardboard, foamsheet, etc to protect stone slabs/tiles from
colliding with each other.
 Packaging
of polished tiles
In case of polished stones, surface of each slab/tile is protected by
using a paper cloth or 2mm-foam while tightly stacking them in a wooden
crate. This protects the polished surface of stones from scratching due
to abrasion of dust particles between two tiles.
 Packaging
of thinner tiles
In case of 10mm or 15mm tiles which are very thin to break, 6-10 such
tiles are first packed in cardboard boxes. These boxes are then tightly
stacked in the wooden crate. Cardboard boxes provide additional cushion
to the thin tiles and prevent them from breakage. In case of softer but
costlier stones like polished marble or granite tiles in 10mm thickness,
5-10 such tiles are first packed in Styrofoam (thermocol) boxes and then
tightly stacked in wooden crate.
 Barcoding
Looking to the needs of DIYs, we offer barcoding on individual tiles,
boxes, wooden crates or as required. Customers need to provide UPC, EAN
or any other prevailing barcode type no. and/or style to us, we will get
them printed and applied.
 Specialized
Packaging
In case of mint sandstone, specially, it retains moisture and is
off-white to peach-yellow in color. The 15mm tiles as mentioned above
are packed in cardboard boxes but thicker tiles with pencil edge,
bullnose or rebated bullnose are individually packed in polythene bags
before tight stacking in wooden crates. As a special case the wooden
crates are also inlined with thermocol sheets for additional protection.
We have adopted this special packing method with our experience.
Customized Packaging
 We
offer option of customized packaging to our customers. At the time of
order placement, customers can ask us for any specialized or customized
packing requirements which will be duly fulfilled to the best capacity.
We continuously strive to further improve our packaging methods as we
learn from our customers. We welcome feedback from all customers. We
understand that the cost of packing is minimal against the cost of
stones and customer satisfaction. Our quality of packing directly
reflects the quality of stones we produce. |
