Protecting your wholesale investment begins at the dock. Handling 330x165 cm Jumbo slabs requires strict adherence to heavy-load safety and storage protocols to prevent warpage, surface scratching, and catastrophic breakage.
Store slabs indoors. Prolonged exposure to direct UV sunlight can alter the tonal properties of the resin matrix over time.
Slabs must be stacked vertically on engineered A-frame iron racks or pipe stands to prevent structural bending.
Stack polished slabs face-to-face and back-to-back with dedicated spacers between each unit to eliminate abrasive scratching. Arrange them so color and production dates can be easily tracked.
Transport slabs exclusively in pairs (or multiples) utilizing certified lifting straps or mechanical clamp attachments attached to forklifts or overhead cranes.
Finished countertops must be transported vertically (front face outwards) secured tightly to A-frame shipping racks, and wrapped heavily in surface-protective films and transit blankets.
