Plastic pallets, also known as plastic pallets or plastic pallets, play a role in the loading, unloading, transportation, and storage of goods in modern logistics. With the increasing variety of plastic pallets, different styles of plastic pallets also have slight differences in application. Let's take a look together.
Different uses of plastic pallets
Grid plastic tray: Grid type is mainly suitable for goods storage and warehouse inventory. A sturdy base can preserve goods intact. The weight of a breathable, lightweight, and one-piece molded tray is a key indicator of tray quality. When other indicators are the same, the harder the tray itself, the better. The price of a tray is generally positively correlated with its own weight. Due to the hollow surface of the grid tray, its own weight is lighter than that of the same flat plastic tray, saving a lot of raw materials. Therefore, the price is lower than that of the flat tray, and the cost-effectiveness is very significant.
Flat plastic tray: Compared with grid plastic tray, flat plastic tray has a flat surface, uniform force, will not damage the packaging, has a good protective effect on goods, and is not easy to accumulate dust, making it easy to clean. The flat plastic tray has exhaust holes on the surface, which have good breathability and significant moisture resistance. Flat plastic pallets can also be equipped with steel pipes, four-way forks, forklifts, ground oxen, electric stackers, and stackers. Flat plastic pallets are more suitable for storing powdered or granular goods, which is convenient for cleaning and sweeping. However, plastic pallets of the same size require less material than grid pallets, so the price may be slightly higher.
Lightweight plastic pallets: primarily used for carrying lighter goods, the most common being nine legged plastic pallets. One obvious advantage of this type of plastic pallet is its lightness and low cost, which can be used with manual or mechanical forklifts. Common sizes include 1200 * 1000 * 140, 1100 * 1100 * 140, 1200 * 800 * 140, 1200 * 900 * 140, etc. Another advantage of this type of pallet is that it can be stacked, which can effectively save space when not in use and transportation costs. It is suitable for some lightweight goods, but its disadvantage is that the load capacity is not high, mainly due to its structure, and it is not suitable for mechanical processing and handling of heavy goods. Most other lightweight pallets belong to nine legged pallets, so they can only be used on flat ground. If encountering uneven ground, it will cause uneven stress on the pallet, and even damage to the pallet.
Different types of plastic pallets excel in different fields and have different prices. Everyone can decide the style and load-bearing capacity of plastic pallets based on their actual storage needs. The selection.
