For logistics fleet managers, the "Deadhead" (empty return trip) is the killer of profitability. Standard A-frames force your flatbeds to return empty because they consume the entire deck space. By equipping your fleet with a versatile, collapsible glass storage transport rack system, you can fold your assets down, stack them, and free up 85% of your trailer space for paying backhaul cargo. |
The problem with specialized glass transport has always been the single-direction revenue. You get paid well to haul the glass, but you lose money driving home.
The Agrack changes this equation. Once you deliver the glass to the construction site or distributor, the racks fold flat (as seen above). A 53-foot flatbed that carried 20 full racks can now carry those same 20 racks stacked in just a few pallet spaces at the nose of the trailer. This leaves the rest of the deck open to pick up lumber, steel coils, or machinery for the return trip. You essentially double your revenue opportunity per mile.
Shippers pay for slot efficiency. If you can fit more glass on a single truck, you become their preferred carrier.
Our system allows for vertical stacking of loaded racks. Unlike static A-frames that sit side-by-side, the Agrack can be stacked two high on a drop-deck trailer (depending on height clearances). This allows you to legally haul more square footage of glass per trip, maximizing your "revenue per load" while staying within DOT safety regulations.
Double your payload capacity by safely stacking fully loaded racks, a feature standard A-frames cannot offer.
As a carrier, your nightmare is a load shifting during a hard brake or a sharp turn. Glass is unforgiving; one slip means a total loss claim.
We engineered the "Cup & Pin" Stacking System specifically for dynamic transport loads. The feet of the top rack act as a socket that engulfs the post of the bottom rack. This creates a mechanical interlock that prevents lateral sliding. Even on bumpy roads or during emergency maneuvers, the stack acts as a unified structural block. This engineering detail significantly lowers your cargo insurance liability risk.
The self-aligning locking feet prevent load shifting, ensuring stability during highway transport.
Yes. The frame features multiple integrated tie-down points compatible with standard 4-inch cargo straps and chains, allowing drivers to secure the load quickly without damaging the rack.
The standard unit weighs approximately 85kg (187 lbs). This relatively low tare weight ensures you aren't sacrificing payload capacity for the rack structure itself.
Yes. We know transport is tough on equipment. The rubber profiles are bolted on (not glued) and can be replaced in minutes using standard hand tools if they get damaged.
Absolutely. We work with many logistics companies to outfit entire fleets. Contact our sales team for volume discounts on orders of full container loads (approx. 50+ units).
Yes. Every rack comes with certified crane lifting eyes at the top corners, allowing for direct unloading at construction sites that may not have forklifts available.
