Our Services
Reliable Sourcing:
When it comes to marble stone temples, reliable sourcing is critical to ensure the use of high-quality marble, which is essential for both durability and aesthetic appeal. The marble is typically sourced from renowned quarries in India, especially from regions such as Rajasthan, known for their superior quality marble, including the famous Makrana marble. These quarries are well-regarded for providing marble that is rich in texture, free from cracks, and offers a smooth, polished surface, making it ideal for intricate carvings and temple construction.
Premium Quality Assurance:
Premium Quality Assurance is maintained through a strict selection process where only the finest marble slabs are chosen. These slabs undergo rigorous testing for strength, durability, and consistency in color and texture. The crafting process is handled by skilled artisans who use traditional techniques, ensuring each temple is hand-carved with precision and attention to detail. Modern tools may also be used to complement traditional craftsmanship, ensuring both artistic integrity and structural reliability.
Inspection for Imperfections: Each piece of marble is inspected for cracks, fissures, or discoloration.
Finishing Standards: The marble is polished to a high gloss, ensuring a smooth and flawless surface that enhances the temple’s visual appeal.
Structural Integrity: The marble blocks are checked for weight-bearing capacity to ensure that the temple remains sturdy over time, even with heavy statues or items placed inside.
Moisture Resistance: Proper sealing and polishing prevent moisture penetration, enhancing the longevity of the marble structure.
Packaging, Shipping & Delivery
Exporting marble stone temples requires meticulous packaging to ensure that these heavy and delicate items reach their destination intact and free from damage. The packaging process for marble stone temples typically follows these steps:
Protective Wrapping:
Each individual piece or section of the temple is carefully wrapped in high-quality protective materials such as bubble wrap, foam sheets, and plastic film. This prevents surface scratches, chips, or any damage that may occur during handling and transit.
Special attention is given to corners, edges, and intricate carvings, which are more vulnerable to damage.
Reinforced Wooden Crates:
The wrapped marble sections are placed in custom-built, reinforced wooden crates designed to accommodate the size and shape of the temple components.
These crates are made from high-quality, sturdy wood, often treated for moisture resistance and pest control.
Inside the crates, cushioning materials like foam padding or thermocol are added to fill any gaps and provide additional shock absorption during transport.
Waterproofing:
The crates are often lined with waterproof materials such as plastic sheets or tarps to prevent any exposure to moisture during transit, which could compromise the quality of the marble.
The crates may also be sealed with moisture-proof packaging material to ensure that the contents are not exposed to humidity or water, especially if shipped via sea.
Sealing and Strapping:
Once the items are securely placed inside the crates, the crates are sealed and strapped with metal or plastic straps to prevent any movement within the crate during transit.
High-tension strapping ensures that the crate remains intact even under rough handling conditions.
Labeling:
Each crate is labeled with clear instructions such as “Fragile,” “Handle with Care,” and “This Side Up” to ensure proper handling during loading, unloading, and transportation.
Detailed shipping labels including product information, destination, and exporter details are affixed to the crate.
Additional labels for customs clearance and export documentation are also included.
Palletization:
For easier handling and transportation, smaller crates may be palletized, where they are placed on wooden or plastic pallets. This helps in easier loading and unloading with forklifts and prevents individual crates from shifting during transport.
Palletized shipments are wrapped in stretch film to provide additional stability.
Container Stuffing:
For larger temples, several crates are loaded into shipping containers. During container loading, crates are securely arranged and may be further strapped or braced to avoid shifting during sea or land transport.
The interior of the container may also be lined with protective materials for added safety, and the load is evenly distributed to prevent imbalance during transit.
Export Documentation:
Along with the packaging, all necessary export documentation such as invoices, packing lists, certificates of origin, and shipping details are prepared to comply with customs regulations and ensure smooth transit through ports of entry.
