What marble is suitable for exterior use?
Outdoor use depends on climate, finish, and piece type. Limaxin confirms suitable stone and finish for fountains or exterior modules before shop-drawing approval.

How is marble packaged for export?
Pieces are export-crated with packing lists and piece IDs for jobsite handling. Large modules get lifting and protection notes for freight.
Is factory-direct marble cheaper?
Factory-direct removes retail showroom markup layers for drawing-led scopes. Landed cost still depends on stone, carving, packing, and Incoterms.
