Stop sacrificing floor space to static A-frames.
In the glass fabrication business, square footage is production capacity. If you are storing empty racks that transport nothing but air, you are bleeding operational efficiency. Our Demountable and Collapsible L-frame systems are engineered to handle heavy IGU units and raw sheets while reducing your reverse logistics costs by 80%.
The Economics of “Shipping Air” in Glass Logistics
For window manufacturers and glass fabricators, the most expensive item on a return truck is often empty space. Traditional welded A-frames are sturdy, but they are logistical nightmares once the glass is offloaded at the construction site. You pay full freight for a truck filled with empty steel.
O Harp Rack é o claro vencedor em eficiência para cenários de pequenos lotes. Ele foi projetado especificamente para funcionar como um sistema dinâmico de triagem e transferência, integrando-se perfeitamente ao fluxo de trabalho entre corte, acabamento de bordas, têmpera e montagem. Ao permitir uma triagem rápida, fornecer proteção superior e manusear com segurança tamanhos personalizados, o Harp Rack capacita os fabricantes de vidro a aumentar a produtividade, reduzir o desperdício e construir uma operação mais ágil e lucrativa. Rack de Armazenamento e Transporte de Vidro Dobrável (Agrack) fundamentally changes this equation. By utilizing a smart fold-down or demountable design, we turn a volume problem into a flat-pack solution.
Figure 1: Maximizing return logistics density with folded L-frames.
The math is simple: Standard static racks fill a truck quickly. Our folding L-frames can be stacked up to 11 units high when empty. In a standard 40ft High Cube container, you can fit 112 folded racks. This capability allows you to close the logistics loop efficiently, retrieving your assets from job sites without dispatching a fleet of empty trucks.
Zero-Tolerance for Edge Damage: The Structural Difference
Whether you are handling soft-coat Low-E glass, heavy laminated sheets, or finished Insulated Glass Units (IGUs), edge protection is non-negotiable. A generic metal rack is a recipe for high cull rates due to chipping and shell cracks during transport.
Unlike general-purpose shelving, our racks de armazenamento de vidro feature a purpose-built protection system. We don’t just glue on a rubber strip that peels off after a month in the yard. We use 10mm thick rubber padding reinforced with an internal steel plate, mechanically fastened to the Q235 steel frame.

This design ensures that even under the weight of 4,400 lbs (2000kg) of stone or glass, the padding will not compress to the point of failure, protecting the critical edges of your architectural glass from road vibration and handling shocks.
Vertical Optimization: 3-High Loaded Stacking
Floor space near the cutting table or tempering furnace is prime real estate. If your current rack de armazenamento de janelas system only allows for single-level storage, you are wasting 66% of your vertical warehouse capacity.
Our L-frame racks are designed with heavy-duty stacking feet and precise locating pins. This allows you to stack fully loaded racks (holding up to 2,200 – 4,400 lbs each) three levels high. This effectively triples your storage density without expanding your facility’s footprint.

Seamless Integration with Fab Shop Workflow
A rack must be mobile to be useful. From the CNC cutting line to the sealing robot, and finally to the delivery truck, the rack is the moving vessel of your production.
Nossos folding glass shipping racks are equipped with standard two-way or optional four-way forklift channels, ensuring compatibility with your existing material handling fleet. For facilities utilizing overhead cranes (common in stone and heavy glass sectors), we integrate certified lifting lugs (lifting hooks) directly into the frame structure.

This versatility allows the rack to move directly from the assembly line into the shipping container without re-racking the glass, significantly reducing handling labor and the risk of accidental breakage.
