Pallets / Skids
Large quantity pallet orders lower cost considerably. Many companies use us exclusively for the high quality of our handmade pallets. Skids are used when heavy or industrial items may not need crating, but need a stable base for loading and transportation.
A standard pallet has 2×4 runners with 1×4 slats evenly spaced along the top and a few on the bottom for stability. Many items can be palletized for shipping at a fraction of the cost of crating, saving you money on packaging and shipping.
Heat Treated Lumber
Heat-Treated lumber is suitable for exporting. We are registered, licensed, and certified to produce lumber, crates, boxes, pallets, and skids. Our customers know they are in good hands with Hamilton X Packaging & Pallets. We truly offer a personal approach to project management, production and design, quality control, inventory management, and delivery. From start to finish.
Design & Development
New ideas and professional development help to stage your products uniquely.
Whether you already have your crate design or if you want to develop the design with us: We implement your design for high-quality series production. If you cooperate with us already in the designing period, we will develop an exclusive and customized blueprint together with you and our designing partners.
Containerization
Containerization refers to the method in which items are loaded into large 20’ or 40’ metal shipping containers, more often than not for ocean export. This method can either include loading wooden crates or skidded items into the metal containers or loading, blocking, and bracing individual, smaller items (breakbulk) into the metal containers.
These smaller items may or may not be added in crates. Vehicles, like cars or motorcycles, can be loaded into these metal containers without having to put them in crates first.
Packaging
We are experts at meeting complex packaging requirements. Our team of packaging professionals cares for every unique item with the same amount of respect and pride. Your packaged items will be handled expertly and arrive safely. Many factors are taken into consideration when designing packaging solutions including dimensions, weight, fragility, mode of transport, and final destination. Then the right materials – from corrugated cardboard and wood to anti-static packaging and vapor barriers, to heat shrink wrap – are used to protect your valuables.
