Pallets
Glendenning covers timber pallets, ISPM 15 certified export pallets, and custom builds for the Sydney industrial market.
LEARN MOREGlendenning is CMTP's Sydney manufacturing site, in the city's outer west. For Sydney manufacturers, third-party logistics providers, and distributors, it's the closest CMTP pallet manufacturing, with a delivery footprint that runs across Greater Sydney, the Central Coast, the Illawarra, and the southern NSW Central Tablelands.
Western Sydney moves more freight than anywhere else in the country, and most of the pallet supply into it is trucked in rather than built there. Manufacturing on the ground at Glendenning is what lets the team hold a 3-4 day standard lead time for operations working off the M4 and M7.
CMTP Glendenning builds timber pallets, crates, cases and produce bins in western Sydney, right off the M4 and M7, and it's the team's specialist site for animal crates. Everything from goats and sheep through to zoo animals has travelled in a Glendenning crate, each one built around the animal, how it's being moved and where it's going. The site also supplies corrosion protection packaging and produce bins for growers across the Hawkesbury and the Sydney basin, all made on site rather than trucked in.
Glendenning sits in the City of Blacktown, 44km west of the Sydney CBD. The Glendenning Industrial Precinct is a dedicated light industrial zone along Glendenning Road and Power Street, supporting logistics and warehousing across western Sydney. The M4 and M7 are both close enough to make it one of the easiest places in western Sydney to move freight from. The wider Blacktown LGA is one of Sydney’s most economically active local government areas, with steady population growth and a deep base of light manufacturing, logistics and retail.

Grant Bateman
Operations Manager Sydney
Grant brings 20 years of production and operations experience from the printing and credit card industries, across both public companies and private enterprises. At Glendenning he's merged our Sydney businesses and put in the systems that let us service the Sydney market at scale.
We service Greater Sydney, the Central Coast, the Illawarra, and Central New South Wales, including Dubbo, Orange and Bathurst. Interstate transport runs weekly to all corners of Australia.
3-4 days is a typical lead time for standard CMTP products, with custom builds typically extending further due to the nature of the custom build process.

The Australian standard 1165 x 1165 pallet is the most common order, alongside Euro and US export footprints. Glendenning also builds to custom dimensions where a standard footprint doesn’t suit the product or the container. Tell the team the load, the handling equipment and the destination and they’ll spec it.
An export pallet is a timber pallet that has been heat treated and certified to ISPM 15, which is what lets it leave the country. Any solid timber packaging heading overseas has to meet it. If your freight stays in Australia a standard wooden pallet does the job. If it is going on a ship or a plane it needs to be an export pallet.
A crate is an open slatted timber container, a case is fully enclosed. Crates are lighter and cheaper for robust goods. Cases give more protection for anything fragile, dust or moisture sensitive, or high value. The Glendenning team will tell you which one suits the job.
Yes. Cases and crates built for international freight are ISPM 15 certified, the same as export pallets. Heavy or oversize machinery is a common use, and those builds are engineered to the load rather than pulled off a shelf.
It’s packaging designed to stop metal components and machinery corroding while in storage or transit. It covers the barrier materials and treatments used alongside timber packaging, and it earns its place wherever goods sit for a while before use or travel through humidity and salt air.
Any time you’re moving or storing bare metal, machined components, tooling or machinery, and particularly on long transit times or export freight. It matters for anything sitting in a western Sydney warehouse before it moves, and for export freight heading out through Port Botany.
Yes. CMTP runs a 3D CAD design capability based at the Colac head office, so Glendenning customers can have a pallet, case or crate engineered around the product rather than forcing the product onto a standard footprint.
Product dimensions and weight, how it’s handled (forklift, pallet jack, crane), how it’s transported and where it’s going, and any compliance requirements such as ISPM 15 or food grade. The more of that you have up front, the faster the Glendenning team can come back with a spec and a price.
