UFP Packaging debuted Slot-Lock and Clamp-Lock 100, two new industrial crate systems engineered for nail-gun-free assembly. The additions expand its pneumatic-free product portfolio alongside U-Loc 200, introduced in 2025. The new systems improve workplace safety and efficiency by eliminating the need for nail and staple guns, providing safer alternatives to traditional pneumatic construction.
The new crates exceed safety standards without compromising strength or durability. Each system can be disassembled without damaging components, supporting reuse and reducing waste. Slot-Lock is a closed-style crate that uses CNC-routed interlocking panels and secures with strapping.
It is suited for aerospace and defense components, medical technology equipment, and sensitive electronics. Clamp-Lock 100 is an open-style crate that uses patent-pending steel L-bracket fasteners designed for hand application during assembly. It is suited for commercial equipment, building materials, and infrastructure components.
U-Loc 200 is an open-style crate featuring patented polyamide fasteners designed for hand application and removal. This system is ideal for automotive components as well as heavy machinery and equipment. UFP Packaging's in-house engineering and design teams provide customizable configurations of each system.
