Glass manufacturers, flat glass distributors, and container glass producers across FL, GA, NJ, MD, and DE require specialized pallets with smooth closed decks that protect fragile glass sheets during transport and storage.
Glass is unforgiving. Standard open-deck pallets with board gaps allow glass sheet edges to contact the gap and crack under vibration during transport. The wrong pallet specification causes breakage that costs far more than the pallets themselves.
Flat glass - window glass, mirror glass, architectural glass - requires a smooth, gap-free pallet surface. Closed-deck block pallets with tightly spaced top deck boards prevent glass edge contact with gaps. Custom-dimension pallets matched to standard glass sheet sizes prevent overhang and edge exposure during forklift handling. Florida Pallet Supply builds custom pallets to exact glass manufacturer specifications.
Container glass - bottles, jars, and specialty glass containers - ships on standard GMA pallets with appropriate cushioning. Glass exports through any US port require ISPM-15 heat-treated pallets.
