Exporting Indian granite and natural stone to Russia
Indian granite is well established internationally and Russian demand runs through both construction and memorial segments. The trade is heavy, slow and specification-sensitive, which rewards suppliers who document well.
What this trade actually requires
Block or slab specification
Colour, grain, finish and thickness tolerances must be agreed with photographic reference. Natural variation is expected but has to be bounded.
Packing for weight and transit
Stone damages in transit when packed badly. Crating and container loading are part of the specification.
Documentation for heavy cargo
Weight declarations and correct classification matter more here than in most categories.

Common questions
+–How is natural variation handled contractually?
With photographic reference samples and written tolerance bands. Without them, every consignment is an argument.
+–Is the memorial segment worth pursuing?
It is a real and specification-driven segment with different finish requirements from construction. Which is right for you depends on your processing capability.
+–Do you inspect at the quarry?
We audit the processing unit and inspect before shipment against the agreed reference.
