Packing & Shipping: Protecting Each Granite Tombstone for Long Transit

Packing & Shipping: Protecting Each Granite Tombstone for Long Transit

A beautifully crafted tombstone is useless if it arrives broken. At Fortune East Stone, we treat packing as the final and most critical step.

Our multi-layer packing standard:

  • Interlayer protection – Soft foam sheet between each granite piece prevents micro-scratches from vibration

  • Edge protection – Hard plastic corners on all four sides absorb impact

  • Carton wrapping – 5-layer corrugated cardboard for puncture and compression resistance

  • Stretch film – Waterproof outer layer protects against rain, humidity, and dust

  • Steel strapping – Heavy-duty straps secure cartons to wooden pallets, preventing shifting inside containers

For extra-large monument slabs, we use custom wooden crates with internal bracing to prevent bending under stacking pressure.

Two-person lift rule: For all monument pieces longer than 80 cm, two workers must lift together – one guiding from the top, one supporting the bottom. No sliding, no dropping, no shortcuts.


Why Choose Fortune East Stone?

We may not be the biggest factory, but we are one of the most consistent – in granite quality, production timelines, and how we handle every order.

  • ✅ True granite – No resin-treated or dyed stones. What you see is what arrives.

  • ✅ Clear communication – Production photos and videos at key stages: cutting, polishing, and packing

  • ✅ Reliable lead times – Typically 25–35 days for standard orders; delays communicated at least 5 days in advance

  • ✅ Factory-direct pricing – No middlemen, no brand markup

  • ✅ After-sales support – Damage during transit? We send replacements or issue credits.

We supply memorial shops, funeral homes, and monument distributors worldwide. Every tombstone is traceable to its original block – from quarry code to production date to polisher ID.

Watch our factory video above. Pay attention to the packing area: workers rotate each tombstone to inspect all six faces before adding foam. Edge protectors are measured against actual slab thickness – good packing adapts to the stone, not the other way around.
