    About this Product

    Building Boards should be shipped in protected packaging to prevent damage during transit. Individual wrapping with bubble wrap or cardboard and securing palletized loads with straps are essential. Stacking no more than three layers on pallets or shelving units ensures stability. Proper spacing and organized storage zones streamline handling and reduce risk of scratches.
