State-of-the-art pallet assembly system
GLP is a growing company that has made investments in state-of-the-art equipment to bring automation to our pallet-building process. This is centered around our multiple Viking automatic pallet nailers, including our newest line which utilizes the industry-leading Viking Turbo 505.
Feeding these automatic nailers is premium #1 grade cut stock, mixed softwoods, and dense-mixed hardwoods. These are cut to precise sizes, direct from the lumber mills, ensuring your pallets are built with the best North American woods. Our automated machines ensure your pallet loads are consistently made with the highest quality materials and processes.
