Product & Load
Dimensions, weight, centre of gravity, load pattern, point loads and sensitivity to movement.
Custom pallets and skids
Custom pallets and skids designed around your product, equipment and shipping process.
When a standard pallet does not fit the application, CPS can build to an existing specification or work with your team to develop a practical custom solution.
Application-driven design
A pallet specification should solve a handling problem—not create one.
Custom pallets can be designed around product geometry, weight distribution, fork access, racking, conveyors, automated palletizers and the expected number of trips.
CPS works with purchasing, engineering, packaging and operations teams to translate those requirements into a manufacturable wood packaging specification.
Custom construction for industrial products and handling systems
Design inputs
What we consider when developing a custom solution.
Material Handling
Forklift entry, pallet jacks, conveyor systems, racking and automated production equipment.
Shipping Cycle
Domestic or export movement, one-way or returnable use, storage environment and delivery frequency.
How the process works
From requirement to repeatable production.
Share the application
Provide a drawing, sample, product information or description of the shipping challenge.
Review the design
CPS evaluates dimensions, load, handling and production requirements.
Confirm the specification
The approved design becomes the reference for quoting and manufacturing.
Build the program
Recurring production can be planned around quantities and delivery needs.
Start with better information
Upload your drawing or show us the current pallet.
For the fastest review, include the pallet dimensions, lumber sizes, nail pattern, quantity, delivery destination and how the pallet is used. Photos of the loaded pallet and handling environment are also useful.

Describe the product, weight, handling equipment, shipping method and current problem. CPS can begin the conversation from the application rather than a finished drawing.
