Elevating Product Transportation Using GMA Pallets

What is a GMA Pallet?

Peninsula Plastics prides itself on providing innovative products that can last the test of time. In the food and beverage industry, it is important to keep your products stored and transported with packaging that is both durable and sanitary. The Grocery Manufacturers Association Pallet keeps that in mind by transporting your products safely time after time.

GMA pallets are a category of reusable pallets that have specific characteristics. The Grocery Manufacturers Association designed this classification system to make distributing and storing food and beverage items easier. These standards involve grade qualities, sizes, materials, and other essential specifications.
Not all pallets meet GMA standards. Peninsula’s GMA pallets are food-grade pallets that are produced with virgin material, making this a clean product that is high in quality. Weighing just under 22 pounds, this is a lightweight twin-sheeted pallet that can be thermoformed with customizable options: 2” stripes and custom material color for easy identification. The footprint of the GMA pallet is 40” x 48” which is standard for this industry.
