VDA KLT stackable plastic containers

VDA KLT small load carriers are designed and produced according to VDA 4500 German standard for the automotive industry.

This standardized injected plastic carrier is most common in transporting goods to and from manufacturers, suppliers, and service providers.

The VDA KLT is Euro-container compatible and comes in an array of designs and colors.

This series of containers was standardized and optimized for the handling of components in car manufacturing:

  • VDA R-KLT containers – reinforced base
  • VDA RL-KLT containers – smooth base, water drainage holes
  • VDA F-KLT containers – foldable/ collapsible walls
  • VDA M-KLT containers – for medium-weight products
  • VDA C-KLT containers – reinforced base for heavyweight products
  • VDA L-KLT containers – long-sized for components with atypical shapes

They are indispensable for the automotive industry’s production, storage, logistics, and assembly lines, by enabling standardization.

Providing a good grip for both human and automated handling is also a particularly important attribute in this industry.

VDA boxes are produced with high-quality materials and comply with the standards for design, color, load norms, and accessories.

They are durable, have a long service life, are exceptionally sturdy, and are resistant to shocks. This is vital for the delicate parts being transported in large quantities, all over the world, in a fast-paced transit.

The straight walls provide generous internal space, optimizing both interior storage and exterior vertical pallet space.

The KLT containers for the automotive industry can be safely stacked with or without lids and are compatible with any Euro container. The exterior edge helps with stack stability and eliminates the need for additional securing or strapping of the load.

They can be placed on superimposed plastic pallets by using a pallet lid to protect the contents. This is very practical as it speeds up reception procedures, and the sturdy pallet cover perfectly protects products. The stack doesn’t need extra strapping for stability.

The VDA KLT crates resist temperatures between -20˚C and 100˚C, are UV stable, can be easily washed due to the smooth inside walls, and provide a clean and well-maintained aspect.

Labels can be easily cleaned and replaced to keep operators well-informed on the crate contents, thus avoiding any mistakes.

By complying with VDA standards, KLT small load carriers have a standard weight, allowing the quickest possible weighing of their contents. A shorter time for delivery contributes to an improved logistics chain.

They are a sustainable option for automotive packaging, and at the end of their service life, they are entirely recyclable, further reducing the carbon footprint and industrial waste.

KLT VDA containers can be paired with a wide array of accessories and other logistic solutions:

  • Lids and covers
  • Internal dividers and separators from foam, EPP, textile material, corrugated or rigid plastic, Duraflex, Triplex, etc.
  • Interlayers and trays
  • Label holders
  • Straps and seals
  • Pallets
  • Trolleys and dollies
  • Containers, Kanban racking

They can be used for many transport cycles, reducing costs and waste.

Due to their modular base size, transport, and storage can be mixed with any Euro container.
