Knowing how is marble packed for container export tells you a lot about a supplier — good packing is the difference between stone that arrives intact and a load of cracked corners. Marble is heavy and brittle, so export packing is an engineering job in itself. Here is exactly how it is done.

How is marble packed for container export, step by step
Slabs are bundled back-to-back on A-frames or in strong, fumigated wooden crates, with foam and timber protecting the edges. Tiles are boxed and palletised. Each crate is labelled, then the container is loaded balanced and braced so nothing shifts at sea.
Why export packing matters
Proper packing protects the fragile edges and polished faces that give marble its value, and keeps your breakage rate near zero. CIDG Egypt handles its own packing and shipping for exactly this reason.
Fumigation and documentation
Wooden crates are heat-treated or fumigated to meet ISPM-15 import rules, and each shipment carries a packing list and certificates for smooth customs clearance.
Egyptian marble travels thousands of miles by sea, so understanding how marble is packed for container export protects your investment from quarry to site.
