Galia boxes
Galia stackable and foldable boxes from injected plastic are produced according to ODETTE standards and comply with the requirements of the French automotive industry.
The automotive industry around the world has special requirements when it comes to supply chain management.
Foldable plastic Galia boxes
The foldable Galia crates from injected plastic are subject to the Odette standard. They are a good way of reducing storage space and, of course, a solution to decrease return transportation costs.
When the containers are empty and folded, their volume is reduced by up to 80%, providing excellent space management and, thus, improved cost-efficiency.
They have a sturdy structure, resistant to multiple folding and unfolding cycles.
Galia boxes have specific designs and colors and recognizable accessories like plastic or metal label holders.
Foldable Galia containers have a smooth base and modular dimensions that can be combined and inter-stacked on the same pallet.
They can be used with internal dunnage for increased flexibility and a more comprehensive range of applications.
The internal dividers can be stored separately in a few boxes for return transport, taking up as little space as possible.
The collapsible Galia boxes can be covered and sealed with lids.

Rigid Galia boxes
The rigid Galia containers and stackable boxes are produced under Odette standards.
They have various dimensions, from small load carriers to long containers and are suited for packaging car parts and pieces on their way to the assembly lines.
They are designed to resist intense use and heavy loads and have a long service life.
The available base dimensions are modular and can be mixed and interlocked in a stack either by placing small bins on top of the big ones or the other way around.
They can be stacked on industrial pallets and covered with pallet lids.
They have closed lateral handles for an ergonomic grip and accessible space for various markings/ labels/ barcodes and plastic or metal label holders. Covers are available for protection against external factors, contaminants and anti-theft.
Galia Odette stackable boxes can be used with internal separators, modular containers, trays and interlayers for better use of the interior space, leading to optimized costs per delivered piece.
The stackable Galia bins and totes are environmentally friendly through their multiple uses and 100% recyclability at the end of their life.

These standards improve collaboration between manufacturers, suppliers, service and solution providers and occasional actors in the automotive industry.
They guarantee best practices and a smooth flow between the different partners. The standards also contribute to increased efficiency and a high level of performance by eliminating unnecessary and time-consuming adaptation of packaging solutions to the products, compatibility between storage/ transport conditions, production details, inventory, distribution, or sequencing.
The standardization covers design, sizing, weight, colors, load recommendations, palletizing details, and ways for identifying the boxes’ content.
They are made from high-quality materials, are reusable, light-weight but very sturdy, and are built to resist intensive and long-term use for heavy loads.
Main features:
- Smooth base – compatible with conveyor lines
- Reinforced walls – for resistance to heavy loads
- Four ergonomic closed handles – easy manual or automated grip
- Plastic or metal label holders – quick and easy identification of the content
- Designated area for barcoding or other self-adhesive label holders
All Galia models can be mixed in stacks, as their base dimensions are modular. The goods do not need to be repacked for transport, and the different storage, handling and transport needs are covered more easily.
They can be used from production to assembly lines, ensuring an optimized flow and less unexpected situations.
Other benefits:
- It can be used for a wide variety of applications
- Easy handling means work satisfaction
- Fewer errors caused by improper marking or labelling
- Optimized costs with transport due to their modularity
- Optimized costs with storage due to their resistance to high vertical stacking
- Quick id due to their standard colors, shorter inventory time and faster delivery procedures
Available accessories include:
- Lids – protection against external factors, ensure the physical integrity
- Internal separators and dividers made of foam, plastic, textile, and thermoformed sheets – better use of the interior space and optimized number of packed products
- Interlayers – optimizing vertical internal space
Galia reusable packaging can be combined with plastic pallets, trolleys, dollies, pallet lids and covers etc., offering complete solutions for the supply chain.
They can be placed on superimposed plastic pallets by using a pallet lid to protect the upper layer of crates. This is very practical. It speeds up the reception procedure upon arrival, the sturdy pallet cover perfectly protects the products, and the stack doesn’t need extra strapping for stability.
They can be easily washed and sanitized using industrial washing machines.
All Galia boxes are reusable and 100% recyclable at the end of their service life.
