Headliner racks.

Returnable steel racks that carry headliners and large soft trim without compression — big, crush-prone parts supported and protected, trip after trip.

Returnable steel automotive shipping racks by Southern Perfection Fabrication, Byron GA

Headliners and large soft-trim parts are big, light, and crush easily — a compressed or creased headliner is scrap. They need to be supported across their contour with no compression and no point loads. A returnable steel rack built to the part carries them safely through the loop.

Why returnable for these parts

Expendable packaging is a cost you pay every shipment, and loose dunnage lets parts move. A returnable steel rack built to the part protects it and amortizes over hundreds of trips — run your numbers in the ROI calculator.

  • Supports the headliner across its contour with no compression
  • Protects soft surfaces from creasing and point loads
  • Separation so large trim parts don't rub or crush
  • Returnable and repairable for low cost per trip

How we protect the part

We design the pocket around your part. Steel structure carries the load; custom foam and dunnage cushion and locate it, with orientation fixed for fast, damage-free handling.

  • Contoured shelves sized to your headliner
  • Soft, full-contour support — no point loads
  • Separation and gentle retention
  • Fixed orientation for careful handling

Built to your part, under one roof

Every rack is engineered and built in-house — laser, forming, welding, powder coat — to your print and your loop, and we repair and refurbish fleets to keep cost per trip low.

FAQ

Headliner Racks — answered.

How do you keep a headliner from being crushed?

We support the part across its full contour with soft contact and no point loads, so it isn't compressed or creased in transit.

Do you build for headliners with electronics or trim installed?

Yes. We design the support and separation to protect any installed hardware along with the soft surface.

How are large soft-trim parts separated?

Each part rests in its own contoured position so trim parts don't rub or press against each other.

Can the racks handle large sunroof or panoramic headliners?

Yes — we size the shelves and structure to your specific part, including large panoramic headliners.

Can you match our existing headliner racks?

Yes. We build to print, can improve a design, and repair and refurbish fleets.
