Killeen sits at the center of Central Texas logistics—supporting defense supply chains tied to Fort Cavazos (formerly Fort Hood), food and beverage distribution, consumer goods, construction materials, and regional warehousing serving Central and North Texas. With direct access to I-14 (US-190), US-195, nearby I-35 corridors, proximity to Killeen–Fort Hood Regional Airport cargo operations, regional rail connections, and freight routes linking Killeen to Austin, Waco, Dallas–Fort Worth, San Antonio, and statewide distribution lanes, the region moves growing volumes of palletized freight every day. Defense and civilian distributors rely on consistent pallet builds to maintain reliability and speed across mixed-use supply chains.
In Killeen’s high-volume, heat-exposed logistics environment, palletized goods are exposed to heavy pallet weights, vibration, compression, summer heat, and constant handling across military supply depots, warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and long-haul trucking routes. Pallet trays provide a rigid, uniform pallet base that reinforces pallet integrity, contains products, and improves handling consistency across Texas and defense-oriented supply chains.
Custom Packaging Products supplies bulk pallet trays to defense contractors, food and beverage distributors, consumer goods companies, warehouses, and 3PLs throughout Killeen and Bell County. Our pallet trays are engineered to improve load stability, reduce product damage, and support efficient palletized freight movement in mission-critical, high-throughput Central Texas operating environments.

Killeen Case Study
A Central Texas defense supplier experienced pallet shifting and carton damage during summer surge shipments when pallets were built directly on mixed-quality wood pallets. After switching to CPP pallet trays, pallet bases became more uniform, heat-related movement declined, and outbound freight damage was reduced across Texas defense distribution routes.
