Many companies need to use plastic pallets in cold storage, such as for storing food, drugs, and precision electronics. The environment of cold storage is more harsh than normal. In the logistics operation of cold storage, there are higher requirements for logistics equipment, especially for the low temperature resistance of pallets. Which type of cold storage pallet is more suitable for use?
1. Which material should be selected for plastic pallets used in cold storage?
HDPE plastic pallets are made of impact resistant, low-temperature resistant, and corrosion-resistant polymer polyethylene; It has the toughness of polypropylene and the low-temperature resistance of polyethylene, with very stable physical properties, anti-wear and drop resistance, making it very suitable for use in large chemical enterprises and low-temperature cold storage environments.
2. Which type of pallet is better for use in cold storage?
The temperature range for preservation and refrigeration is between 0 ℃ and minus 18 ℃. At this temperature, most bacteria cannot survive, but there are still a large number of bacteria that can grow and reproduce at this temperature, such as Listeria. When selecting pallets for storing goods to avoid infection by external bacteria, easy to clean pallets should be chosen. Recommend 1210 Tian plastic pallets specifically designed for fresh-keeping and refrigerated storage. The characteristic of this plastic pallet is that it is easy to clean and bacteria have nowhere to grow, making it the best choice for plastic pallets in cold storage.
Low temperature and quick freezing warehouses generally have a temperature below -25 ℃ and are mainly used for quick freezing of food, such as frozen meat, frozen dumplings, frozen vegetables, etc. It is required to quickly freeze the food within a limited time.
The characteristic of a quick freezing warehouse is the need to quickly freeze food, which requires air conditioning to be able to exchange quickly around the goods. It is recommended to use plastic pallets with large mesh holes and a bottom with a Sichuan shaped grid, which facilitates the flow of air conditioning in any direction of the goods and can quickly freeze them.
3. When using pallets in cold storage, pay attention to the following points!
Firstly, because plastic pallets become brittle, they must be handled with care and avoid rough handling, otherwise plastic pallets are easily broken.
Secondly, it is best to temporarily store plastic pallets at room temperature when they first come out of the cold storage, so that the flexibility of the plastic can gradually recover, which is more secure for the transportation or turnover of goods.
The biggest feature of using plastic pallets in cold storage is the low temperature, which can make the plastic pallets harder and brittle. Because cold storage is usually only used for storage, it does not pose a significant threat to the goods.
