New Orleans sits at the center of one of North America’s most critical port, energy, food processing, chemical, and regional distribution networks. With direct access to the Port of New Orleans, the Mississippi River system, I-10, I-610, I-510, Class I rail, and freight corridors linking New Orleans to Houston, Memphis, Atlanta, the Gulf Coast, and inland barge routes, the region moves massive volumes of palletized freight every day. Port operations, import/export, food and beverage distribution, and industrial supply chains depend on consistent pallet builds to protect cargo across complex, multi-modal logistics flows.
In New Orleans’ coastal and river-based logistics environment, palletized goods are exposed to humidity, salt air, vibration, compression, load shifting, and frequent handling across ports, barges, warehouses, and long-haul trucking routes. Pallet trays provide a rigid, uniform pallet base that reinforces pallet integrity, contains products, and improves handling consistency across Gulf Coast and inland distribution networks.
Custom Packaging Products supplies bulk pallet trays to port operators, food processors, chemical and industrial facilities, warehouses, and distribution centers throughout New Orleans and the surrounding Gulf South. Our pallet trays are engineered to improve load stability, reduce product damage, and support efficient palletized freight movement in moisture-heavy, high-throughput operating conditions.

New Orleans Case Study
A New Orleans–area importer experienced pallet shifting and moisture-related carton damage during port-to-warehouse transfers when pallets were built directly on wood pallets. After switching to CPP pallet trays, pallet builds became more uniform, moisture exposure declined, and outbound freight reliability improved across Gulf Coast routes.
