For overseas shipping of this kind of large-scale bronze Buddha statue, the Sino sculpture company has rich experience on it. Due to the package size limitation, the large Phra Buddha Dhammakāya Thepmongkhon shall have to be cut into proper dimension sections to fit the sea shipping container.
While each bronze sections are large and weigh, the plywood boxes are not a good option. Normally, the pre-built steel frame crate will be used to package these bronze sectional panels.
Additionally, be sure to label the package as fragile and indicate that it contains artwork to ensure proper handling during transport, and a clear label will be much helpful to identify each bronze panel for future site installation.
