The plastic tray is injection molded from polymer materials and weighs only one-third of a wooden tray, yet it can carry 1-2 tons of goods. Its honeycomb structure design not only reduces its own weight, but also achieves uniform load-bearing by strengthening the distribution of reinforcement bars, avoiding the problem of traditional wooden pallets breaking due to local stress. This feature significantly reduces fuel consumption in cross-border transportation, meets the requirements of the EU REACH environmental regulation for lightweight transportation vehicles, and has become the preferred alternative to wooden products in international logistics.
Plastic pallets that comply with the ISO6780 international standard can be customized in sizes of 1200mm × 1000mm (European standard) or 48 inches × 40 inches (North American standard), achieving seamless compatibility with containers, shelves, forklifts, and other equipment. Its four sided fork design supports mechanical handling, and the bottom grid structure is easy to clean and disinfect, meeting FDA food grade certification requirements. This standardized feature enables plastic pallets to achieve "one pallet to the end" in cross-border supply chains, reducing the rate of cargo damage in transit links.
Recyclable plastic pallets have a lifespan of 5-8 years, and after being scrapped, they can be made into new pallets through crushing and recycling processes, achieving resource closure. Compared to wooden pallets that require fumigation to prevent pest infestations, plastic pallets do not require quarantine certification, avoiding customs clearance delays caused by biological pollution. Its weather resistance remains stable in environments ranging from -30 ℃ to 80 ℃, making it particularly suitable for special scenarios such as cold chain logistics, highlighting its environmental advantages under the EU carbon border tax mechanism.
The new generation of plastic pallets integrates RFID chips, which can track real-time data such as cargo location, temperature and humidity, and combine with blockchain technology to achieve traceability and anti-counterfeiting. The anti slip texture design on its surface improves the stability of the goods by 40%, and can still maintain stacking stability in rough sea transportation environments. This intelligent feature makes plastic pallets the core carrier of high-end logistics fields such as cross-border e-commerce and pharmaceutical cold chain, promoting the digital and visual upgrading of global supply chains.
