By the end of March 2025, there are two 20ft containers of GMT pallet at the size of 1400x1200x50mm has been shipped to one of Hawen’s valued customer in Saudi Arabia, who has a MASA 9001 automatic block making machine, which underscores the growing global demand for durable and sustainable material handling solutions for block factory. This delivery marks a strategic milestone for Hawen machinery in expanding GMT Pallet’s presence in the Middle East, catering to industrial clients seeking high-performance logistics tools.
1.Key GMT Pallet Features Driving Block Industrial Adoption
1.1 Lightweight Yet Durable Construction
GMT Pallets are engineered using Glass Fiber Reinforced Thermoplastic (GMT) technology, combining strength with a 30% lighter weight compared to traditional wooden or metal pallets or PVC Pallet. This feature ensures easier handling and reduced shipping costs.
1.2 Corrosion and Moisture Resistance
Ideal for harsh environments like Saudi Arabia’s climate, GMT pallet features include resistance to humidity, chemicals, and temperature fluctuations, ensuring longevity even in demanding industrial settings.
1.3 Customizable Design for Block Factories
Tailored for block manufacturing workflows, GMT Pallets can be designed with reinforced edges and load-bearing capacities up to 500 kg, aligning with the heavy-duty requirements of concrete block production.
2. Advantages of GMT Pallet Over Conventional Alternatives
2.1 Cost Efficiency and Sustainability
The advantage of GMT Pallet lies in its 100% recyclability, reducing waste and aligning with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 sustainability goals. Businesses save long-term costs through minimal maintenance and a lifespan exceeding 10 years.
2.2 Hygiene and Compliance
Unlike wooden pallets, GMT Pallets eliminate risks of splinters, pests, or fungal growth, meeting stringent international hygiene standards—a critical factor for export-oriented industries.
2.3 Reduced Carbon Footprint
The lightweight design lowers fuel consumption during transportation, supporting eco-friendly supply chains while maintaining load integrity.
3. Benefits of using GMT Pallets for block factories
3.1 Optimized Workflow in Concrete Block Production
The GMT Pallet for Block Factory streamlines material handling with smooth surfaces that prevent block abrasion and ensure consistent product quality. Its compatibility with automated systems reduces manual labor by 40%.
3.2 Safe Storage and Stacking
With uniform dimensions and anti-slip surfaces, GMT Pallets enable secure stacking of blocks, minimizing workplace accidents and maximizing warehouse space utilization.
3.3 Reduced Maintenance Costs
GMT Pallets require no repairs or treatments (unlike wooden pallets), cutting long-term operational expenses. Their 10+ year lifespan outperforms traditional alternatives.
3.4 Adaptability to Harsh Environments
GMT Pallet Features like resistance to extreme temperatures (from -20°C to70°C) and humidity make them ideal for Saudi Arabia’s climate, ensuring reliable performance in outdoor block storage or high-heat curing processes.
The successful delivery of GMT Pallets to customer in Saudi Arabia highlights Hawen machinery’s transformative potential for block manufacturing and beyond.
By leveraging innovative features and eco-conscious advantages, GMT Pallets are redefining material handling standards worldwide.
