Transit Layer Boards (TLBs) provide the ultimate solution for stacking kegs, increasing vehicle
payloads and better utilizing valuable warehouse space. This is in addition to keeping kegs more stable
and safer within the vertical stacks. The range of TLBs extends to designs which fit the common keg sizes
of 1/2 bbl, 1/4 bbl and 1/6 bbl steel kegs.
Transit Layer Boards minimize the separation of the layers of kegs to 3/4 inch, so are ideal for keg shipments, as well as for stacking kegs within confined spaces of brewery operations and warehouses. The
range of Transit Layer Boards is currently being expanded to conform with different pallets, especially the
48” x 40” foot print of the GMA pallet.
