CMTP Clontarf is a pallet manufacturer on the Redcliffe Peninsula and CMTP’s bayside Brisbane site. The team builds timber pallets, crates, cases and produce bins for businesses across Moreton Bay, bayside Brisbane and the northern Gold Coast, and it’s the site most coastal operations work with.
The peninsula has a different industrial character to Brisbane’s northern corridor, and the order book reflects that: lighter manufacturing, food and produce. Produce bins are a big part of the work here, supplying growers across Moreton Bay and south-east Queensland’s farming districts.
Clontarf also supplies corrosion protection packaging for metal goods stored or shipped in the salt air around the peninsula. It’s steady work that comes with operating on the coast.
Clontarf covers timber pallets to AS 4068, ISPM 15 certified export pallets, and custom builds for Brisbane and Moreton Bay operations. The team builds heavy, medium and light-duty pallets in standard Australian, Euro and US sizes, or to your own dimensions.

Timber cases and crates are part of the standard range at Clontarf, for operations that want pallets and crates supplied together rather than managing separate suppliers. Each case or crate is built to suit your product, whether it’s going across town or overseas with ISPM 15 certification for export.

Produce bins are part of the standard range at Clontarf, for growers who want bins and pallets supplied together rather than managing separate suppliers. The team builds timber bins for Queensland growers across Brisbane and the surrounding growing regions, in 1 tonne, half tonne and quarter tonne sizes or custom built to suit your crop and handling gear.

Complex and oversize custom work is engineered with CMTP’s 3D CAD design team, so a Clontarf customer gets the same design capability as head office without changing supplier. Every design is modelled around your product’s weight, dimensions and handling before anything is built, so the packaging fits the first time.
Design & EngineeringClontarf sits on the Redcliffe Peninsula, within the City of Moreton Bay. The peninsula has a different industrial character to Brendale: lighter manufacturing, retail, automotive, and a historical fishing and prawning industry, paired with a tourism economy that brings around 1.2 million visitors a year. Moreton Bay as a region is building toward a $40 billion economy by 2041 under the council’s economic strategy, with Brendale and Clontarf playing different roles in that plan.

General Manager Queensland.
Jay oversees both Queensland sites, including Clontarf. His production-floor background at Colac and the lean manufacturing programs he’s led across the CMTP group are what underpin how the Clontarf operation runs.
We service the Redcliffe Peninsula, bayside Brisbane, the broader Moreton Bay region and the northern Gold Coast. 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 Clontarf team understands that things don’t always go to plan and is adaptable to your needs. We have many case studies that entail very quick turnaround times, so give the team a call for these express orders.

The bayside mix leans toward lighter manufacturing, food and produce, automotive, retail supply, and the businesses feeding the peninsula’s tourism economy. Coastal operations also lean harder on corrosion protection packaging given the salt-air environment.

Salt air on the peninsula means coastal operations lean harder on corrosion protection packaging.
CMTP operates multiple sites across Australia. Find your nearest location below.
Yes. CMTP manufactures timber pallets, export pallets and custom pallet solutions from its Clontarf facility, supporting customers across the bayside, the Moreton Bay region and the northern Gold Coast.
The Clontarf facility manufactures standard timber pallets to AS 4068, ISPM 15 certified export pallets, custom builds, cardboard cartons, and corrosion protection packaging.
Yes. The Clontarf site services the bayside, the broader Moreton Bay region, Brisbane’s southern suburbs, and the northern Gold Coast, with weekly interstate transport to all states.
Yes. CMTP’s Clontarf team can design custom pallet solutions based on product dimensions, weight requirements, handling methods, and transport conditions.
Yes. CMTP manufactures ISPM 15 certified export pallets that comply with international timber packaging requirements for export freight.
3-4 days is a typical lead time for standard CMTP products. Custom builds run longer depending on the design. Contact the Clontarf team for current availability, and call for express orders.
The Australian standard 1165 x 1165 pallet is the most common order, alongside Euro and US export footprints. Clontarf 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 Clontarf 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. Coastal operations on the peninsula lean harder on it than most, because salt air does the damage whether the product is moving or not.
Yes. CMTP runs a 3D CAD design capability based at the Colac head office, so Clontarf 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 Clontarf team can come back with a spec and a price.
The Clontarf team covers everything from standard pallet runs to corrosion protection packaging for coastal operations.
