GMA 48x40 four-way stringer construction conforms to the National Wooden Pallet & Container Association (NWPCA) 2014 Uniform Standard; deck board configuration 7-board top, 5-board bottom.

Texas regulatory context

Port of Houston Authority requires ISPM-15 stamp verification at Bayport Terminal and Barbours Cut; we coordinate with longshore inspectors for full-load certification, eliminating dock-delay risk.

Eagle Ford Shale and Permian frac-sand operations require sand-resistant pallet treatment; we supply chemically resistant heat-treated stock that withstands abrasive frac-sand loading cycles.

Standard 48x40 GMA pallets feature 5/8 inch deck boards with a 4-board face pattern; bottom configuration is 3-board for four-way fork entry; nail pattern uses 2.5 inch screw-shank galvanized fasteners.

Lumber spec for new GMA stock: mixed hardwood (oak, maple, ash, hickory) with minimum 600 SG (specific gravity); kiln dried to <19% moisture; visible defects limited to wane on outer 1/3 of deck board only.

Delivery and logistics

Buyback programs pay current market rate for returned pallets in Grade A condition; minimum 50 pallets per pickup; integrated with our recycling stream for sustainability reporting.
