Definition and types of large load carriers

Large load carriers, often abbreviated to GLT, are large-format containers that are specially designed for the transportation and storage of goods over long distances. These are not only robust, but often also have a modular design to transport different goods safely and efficiently. Here is an overview of the different types and their specific applications:

1. Standard large load carriers: Universally applicable, these load carriers are suitable for a wide range of transportation tasks in various industries. Their versatility makes them a basic piece of logistics equipment.
2. Specialized large load carriers: Developed for the transport of specific types of goods, such as liquids, hazardous goods or sensitive electronics. These containers are particularly safe and comply with strict safety standards to meet the requirements of transporting sensitive goods.
3. Customizable large load carriers: Tailor-made for special requirements, these load carriers offer solutions for unusual sizes or shapes. They enable optimum adaptation to the customer’s individual requirements.
4. Pallets: These are the workhorses of transport and warehouse logistics and are usually made of wood or plastic. They offer a standardized solution for stacking and moving heavy and large components.
5. KLAPA: An innovative, foldable pallet-based large load carrier that enables flexible and space-saving handling in the logistics chain.
6. Large plastic containers: Their robustness and stability make it possible to store or transport a large number of products per container. Their stackability optimizes the use of storage space and promotes efficient warehouse management.

Each of these load carriers plays a crucial role in increasing efficiency and safety in transport and warehousing and optimizing logistics processes in various industries.
