GLF manufactures custom pallets, load carriers and wooden packaging for industrial applications. Compare custom packaging and custom crates and boxes with the other products below.

The construction, manufacturing location and delivery arrangement are confirmed for each enquiry.

Wooden drums for Husqvarna chainsaw chains, 2020–2021

GLF’s published Husqvarna case describes a wood-based packaging solution for chainsaw chains, developed from 2020 for transport to the USA. The project included prototypes, a trial series and external testing before Husqvarna’s first regular order of 5,000 units in April 2021.

When does a standard product fit—and when is a customised product useful?

A standard product is a starting point when an existing format and the published product information match what needs to be packed, stored or transported. GLF’s product pages include standard pallet formats and details for individual products. When dimensions, materials, handling or protection needs differ, a customised product may be more appropriate. This page brings together custom crates and boxes, custom packaging, custom pallets, and chipboard and plywood pallet lids.

What to include in a custom-packaging enquiry

Start an enquiry by describing what the product will be used for and the goods it must support or contain. Include the goods’ length, width, height and weight, together with how they will be lifted, moved, stored or packed. Explain where support is needed, what type of protection is relevant and whether you already have a pallet, lid, crate, box or packaging format in mind. If available, attach a drawing or simple dimensional sketch.

Also state the required quantity, destination and whether the need is for one project or a recurring flow. If some details are still unknown, share the information available and identify what remains to be confirmed. A clear brief makes it easier to assess whether an existing product is suitable or whether a customised product should be discussed. Use this page to review the options, then contact GLF through the existing sales button.

Buying customised packaging

From enquiry to agreed specification

A useful quotation connects the packaging design with the quantity, delivery and acceptance requirements for your order.

For customised products, GLF confirms the construction, manufacturing location and delivery arrangement for each enquiry. Once the requirements are clear, check that the written offer covers the following points.

  1. The product you are approving. Identify the drawing or specification and its revision, the agreed material and any sample or trial needed before the main order. Record how a later design change will be agreed.
  2. The quantity and production plan. Distinguish an initial order from repeat deliveries. Ask which quantity the price covers, whether a minimum applies and what must be approved before a delivery date can be confirmed.
  3. The complete delivered cost. Check the delivery address, packing and unloading requirements, what freight and handling are included, and how taxes are presented. State any delivery restrictions before the offer is finalised.
  4. The order confirmation. Check the supplying company, product revision, quantity, price and delivery arrangement together. Agree how the delivered packaging will be checked against the order.

Need a fixed delivery date or a repeat supply arrangement? Include that requirement in your enquiry so it can be considered alongside the design and quantity.

Pallets, collars and lids

Confirm the complete assembly

When a pallet, collar and lid will be used together, describe the assembly as well as the individual parts.

Matching nominal dimensions are a starting point for an enquiry. Ask for confirmation of the specific combination and the conditions for its intended use.

  1. Identify each part. Include the product reference and drawing revision for the pallet, collars, lid and any fixing or insert.
  2. Describe the fit. Provide the required internal space, overall height, clearances and how the parts will locate against one another.
  3. Describe the handling. Explain where the assembly will be supported, how the goods will be restrained, how it will be lifted and whether assemblies will be stacked.
  4. Agree the approval record. Ask which drawing, sample or test covers the finished configuration and which handling and stacking restrictions apply.

Confirmation should refer to the complete configuration and its intended use. A dimension on one product page does not establish the load capacity or fit of an assembled packaging system.
