ABSTRACT:
A package for shipping and storing a bundle of glass panels includes a plurality of molded plastic corner caps, wherein each one has an L-shaped cross section for embracing one corner of the bundle formed by the intersection of two edge surfaces of each glass panel. Each pair of corner caps is coupled by a separate side sheet that is securely received in a cavity of each corner cap to prevent racking of the panel bundle. A pair of plates are slidably mounted on each corner cap hold the bundle of panels between the plates. A number of strapping bands extend around the corner caps and the bundle of panels tying the assembly into a unitized package. An optional support tray to be engaged by material handling equipment may be held beneath the panel bundle by the strapping bands.
