The raw materials of plastic pallets directly determine their load-bearing strength and service life. Currently, there are three main types of plastic pallet raw materials available on the market: new materials, mixed materials, and recycled materials. The use of various raw materials can optimize the cost-effectiveness of plastic pallets and serve the different needs of different enterprises. Let's take a look together below.
The impact of plastic pallet raw materials
Brand new material: HDPE brand new material, with the advantages of good quality, bright colors, strong load-bearing performance, and long service life. The disadvantage is that the price is a bit higher. Mixture: By mixing recycled materials in a certain proportion, the cost is relatively low compared to new materials, and the purchase price is also lower. But the quality and load-bearing capacity are not as good as brand new materials. Suitable for customers with low quality requirements to purchase. Return material: Adding a large amount of return material gradually increases the damage rate. Belongs to disposable plastic pallets. The disadvantage of this raw material is poor performance. Produce light colored plastic pallets using the method, suitable for one-time use.
The raw materials of plastic pallets have a significant and important impact on the quality of plastic pallets. Because genuine new plastic pallets do not add any impurities except for plastic particles and a small amount of improved formula, the new material pallets have stable performance, good load-bearing capacity, and good toughness. The important thing is that the new material pallet has a long anti-aging cycle. After 1-3 years of use, the distinction is very obvious. The damage rate of the new material pallet is still very small after 3-5 years of use. The pallet made of recycled materials may be obviously brittle after 1-2 years.
The color of the brand new plastic pallet is bright and glossy, with obvious gloss reflection in sunlight. The returned plastic pallet has a dull color and no gloss. New material products have good toughness, bending resistance, no deformation, and no cracking, while the toughness of recycled materials is poor, relatively brittle, and prone to fracture.
Summary: Enterprises with high quality requirements for plastic pallets and long service life can purchase brand new pallets. Although the price is slightly higher than new materials, you get what you pay for. I hope everyone can choose a suitable plastic pallet
