The Japan Stones International Packaging Method: Ensuring Your Yukimi Stone Lantern Arrives Safely

 

We are delighted that an American customer has purchased our Yukimi Stone Lantern! We have shipped your order via UPS, taking every measure to ensure its perfect condition upon arrival.

The Yukimi Stone Lantern is composed of two main parts. To ensure safe transport, we strictly adhere to the following packaging standards:

Why Two Packages?

To prevent the stone parts from directly touching each other, which could cause friction damage during transit, we separate the lantern into two individual parcels. This multi-package approach is the first step in our protection strategy.

Our Detailed Packaging Procedure:

We utilize a robust combination of cushioning materials, including newspaper, air cushions, and custom cardboard inserts:

  • Layer 1: Japanese Stone Industry Newspaper The first material we use is newspaper and air cushions. (Please note: The newspaper we use is our specialized Japanese Stone Industry Newspaper, which we read daily as part of our ongoing study and commitment to stone materials.) This initial layer of newspaper protects the stone surface and fills minor gaps.

  • Layer 2: Air Cushions and Cardboard We then wrap the parts securely in air cushions and use sturdy cardboard to stabilize the item within the box, ensuring the stone remains absolutely fixed and cannot move.

  • The Outer Box Both parcels are placed in high-quality corrugated cardboard boxes, capable of withstanding the rigors of international travel.

We select UPS as our logistics partner due to their extensive experience in international shipping, including handling many precision instruments and high-value items. This gives us confidence in their service.

We have ensured your precious Yukimi Stone Lantern will reach our American customer safely and securely. Of course, we have provided the tracking numbers to allow you to monitor the journey.

Thank you very much for your purchase and trust in Japan Stones.
