As an important tool for modern logistics and warehousing, the choice of plastic pallets directly affects the efficiency of cargo handling, storage safety, and operating costs. This article starts from the two core dimensions of style and purpose, providing a systematic selection strategy to help you accurately match your needs in complex markets.
The style design of plastic pallets directly affects their load-bearing capacity, handling adaptability, and scene suitability. The following is a performance analysis of mainstream styles:
Nine legged tray (grid bottom structure)
Features: Nine evenly distributed support feet at the bottom form a grid like hollow structure, with light weight and strong anti slip properties.
Adaptation scenario: Suitable for manual hydraulic forklift handling and light storage with flat ground (such as daily necessities e-commerce warehouses).
Avoid using on uneven surfaces to prevent the support feet from breaking.
Chuanzi tray (three longitudinal beam structure)
Features: Three parallel longitudinal beams at the bottom form a forklift passage, with superior bending resistance and a dynamic load capacity of up to 1.5 tons.
Adaptation scenarios: Manufacturing factories with automated three-dimensional warehouses and high-frequency forklift operations (such as automotive parts warehouses).
Tianzi tray (grid+horizontal and vertical reinforcement ribs)
Features: The bottom horizontal and vertical cross structure provides bi-directional compressive strength, suitable for irregular stacking.
Adaptation scenarios: Port container transportation, third-party logistics transfer (such as cross-border logistics distribution centers).
Special advantage: The goods are subjected to uniform force, reducing the risk of carton deformation.
Double sided tray vs single-sided tray
Double sided: with a positive and negative double grid structure, suitable for stacking without shelves (such as stacking fertilizer bags), but with a 15% increase in weight.
Single sided: Single sided flat design, matched with high-level shelving systems (such as cold chain warehouses), to improve space utilization.
2、 Purpose oriented: Industry demand determines functional configuration
Different industries have differentiated requirements for pallets in their work scenarios, and the following functional dimensions need to be focused on:
1. Food and pharmaceutical industry: Health and safety come first
Essential configuration: Made of HDPE raw material, certified by FDA for food contact, with an integrated seamless structure to prevent microbial growth. The light colored design (white/blue) facilitates the detection of stains
2. Chemical industry: corrosion resistance and aging resistance
Key indicators: The acid and alkali resistance test should reach an environmental tolerance of pH 2-12, and the outdoor exposure life should be extended to 5 years Attention: For the transportation of highly corrosive liquids, a fully plastic structure should be selected to avoid rusting of metal inserts.
By implementing a systematic style use matching strategy, enterprises can reduce logistics costs by over 20%. Suggest establishing a tray file management system to record the usage data of each batch, providing decision-making basis for subsequent procurement.
