U-Loc Tool-Free Crating

Tool-Free Crate Assembly

The U-Loc crating line is a game changer for businesses prioritizing safety, efficiency, and sustainability. Designed for tool-free assembly -- and in some models, tool-free disassembly -- U-Loc fasteners eliminate the need for nail and staple guns, lowering the risk of workplace injuries and improving operational performance.

Each U-Loc crating system is designed for easy hand assembly, making setup and even breakdown faster and safer with their patent-pending, reusable fasteners. U-Loc is available in models for open and closed-style crating applications.

Models Available:

U-Loc 200

U-Loc 200 is the first tool-free fastener for both the assembly and disassembly of open-style crates. The system's block-style base supports four-way forklift access and is fully customizable for various industrial applications.

U-Loc 200: How it Works

Attach the patent-pending fasteners to the crate walls and repeat until the crate is fully assembled.

The same fasteners make disassembly just as easy through the built-in "finger grips."

For a truly tool-free, open-style packaging solution that enhances workplace safety, U-Loc 200 is the only choice.
