Quick Answer For a U.S. marble shipment, customs preparation should start before the container leaves the factory. Your broker needs a clear description of the goods, their processing state, country of origin, a reviewed HTS classification, and commercial and packing information that describe the same shipment. For ocean freight, key ISF information is required before or around shipment departure,...
Quick Answer To verify a Chinese marble supplier, do not rely on one business license, factory photo, certificate, sample, platform badge or project image. Check seven core areas: Legal identity — Is the Chinese company real and active? Transaction identity — Who are you contracting with, whose chop is on the contract, and who receives payment? Production control — Who actually c...
Quick Answer A typical 20ft container carries about 430 m² of 20mm marble slabs or 275–280 m² of 30mm marble slabs. For slabs around 2800 × 1800 mm: 20mm / 2cm: about 85 slabs 30mm / 3cm: about 55 slabs Marble containers are planned by weight, not by cubic space. At Excellent Stone we normally plan a 20ft marble container at around 25 tonnes of cargo, not the container's theo...

Cut-to-size pieces, project pieces and tiles normally arrive in wooden crates or pallets. Our stone ...

Before shipment, buyers should identify structurally sensitive areas, confirm that vulnerable surfaces and cargo movement are controlled, and document the condition of the selected slabs. If damage appears after delivery, the damage p...
Quick Answer A pre-shipment inspection should not give every marble slab the same checklist and the same inspection effort. First confirm that the slabs being inspected are the actual slabs or batch you approved. Then concentrate on the risks that matter for that particular marble: structural soundness, repairs, dimensions, finish, usable area, or visual consistency. On a first order, material ide...
Quick Answer A marble dry lay inspection is an inspection of relationships. Finished pieces are laid out dry, in the positions the drawing gives them, so you can see what they look like as one surface instead of as a stack of individually passed QC results. Which orders that is worth doing on, and which it only buys handling on, is the narrower question below. On projects that use a physical dry l...
