HRD Antwerp has launched a same-day grading service at a 30 percent extra cost, for diamond companies looking at submitting diamonds, and having them certified and collected within the same day itself. For diamonds delivered before 10 a.m. at the HRD Antwerp – Diamond Lab, the lab would grade and return the certified diamonds on the very same day after 4 p.m. %% The lab intends to enable the diamond dealers to be well equipped to deal with urgent business transactions. The lab has a limit to the number of diamonds it can accept per day under its speed service, and so offers the service on a “first come, first serve” basis.
