How to unload the quartz slabs container or other stone slabs container? 

Let's see which choice works better:

1. Normally, quartz slabs or other stone slabs are packed in wooden bundles with 7 to 8 packages in one container. Some importers unpack the wooden bundles in the container with labor work and pull out quartz slab one by one, which costs much time and takes much risks of breaking the slab. What's worse, it is danderous for workers during unloading.
2. In order to avoid the danger of unpacking wooden packages in the container, some buyers ask supplier to load the quartz slabs in A-frame rather than wooden bundles. With A-frame, they don't take risks of unpacking wooden bundles in the container and pull out each slab with forklift. However, comparatively, the A-frame is capable of loading less quantity than wooden bundle, which finally raises up the shipping cost of each slab. And it is a waste of much time. 
3. Few customers still choose wooden packages, but load in the "open top" container. They lift the wooden bundles from container top, which is safer, but still time-wasting. Moreover, the shipping price of "open top" container is more expensive than that of normal closed container.
4. Actually, all questions come to the conflict between the short forklift boom and deep container space. Therefore, the best way is to extend the forklift arm to catch the quartz slabs from deep container end. And the forklift boom should be strong enough to lift the whole quartz bundles, about 3.5 tons. That is why we manufacture this forklift telescopic boom equipment. It has 6-file choices to lift different weight. In restracted state, it could lift the heaviest bundle, 5 tons.

For different detailed purposes, we have manufactured different types of forklift telescopic boom, customized on customers' requirements.
