Application of plastic flooring in various scenarios
Source: kuda 2025-10-28
Plastic flooring, as a key tool in modern logistics and warehousing, is gradually replacing traditional wooden pallets due to its lightweight, durable, and environmentally friendly characteristics. Its core advantage lies in material innovation - using engineering plastics such as high-density polyethylene (HDPE) or polypropylene (PP), which are integrated through injection molding or blow molding processes, with a sturdy structure and light weight, significantly reducing transportation energy consumption. The surface anti slip texture design ensures the stability of goods stacking, while the rounded edges and corners avoid safety hazards during transportation. In humid, high temperature or chemical corrosive environment, plastic floor slab shows excellent aging resistance and corrosion resistance, and its service life is far longer than that of wooden tray, becoming the first choice for food, medicine, chemical industry and other industries.
The application scenarios of plastic flooring cover the entire supply chain. In the warehousing process, its standardized dimensions (such as 1200mm × 1000mm) are compatible with mainstream global shelving systems, achieving three-dimensional storage and improving space utilization; In the transportation process, lightweight design effectively reduces vehicle load and, in conjunction with forklift holes, achieves mechanized and efficient loading and unloading; In the recycling process, the modular structure supports partial damage replacement, significantly reducing maintenance costs. It is worth mentioning that its smooth and easy to clean surface is particularly suitable for cold chain logistics and pharmaceutical industries with strict hygiene requirements, avoiding the problem of mold growth on wooden pallets.
From an environmental perspective, plastic flooring is a model of circular economy. Its 100% recyclable material can be converted into new products through melt regeneration technology, completely solving the pollution problem of burning or burying discarded wooden pallets. Compared to disposable wooden pallets, plastic flooring has lower lifecycle carbon emissions and does not require deforestation. Some companies have also launched "trade in" services, which recycle old pallets through reverse logistics to further reduce resource waste. This closed-loop model from production to recycling is driving the logistics industry towards a green and low-carbon transformation.
With the development of intelligent logistics, the innovative application of plastic flooring continues to deepen. For example, smart pallets embedded with RFID chips can track the real-time location and temperature and humidity data of goods, improving supply chain transparency; The folding design significantly reduces the empty transport volume and lowers logistics costs. In the future, with the application of new materials such as bio based plastics, plastic flooring will further achieve a "zero carbon footprint" and become the core carrier for building a sustainable logistics system. From warehouses to shelves, from factories to supermarkets, this small plastic board is silently reshaping the ecology of modern logistics.
