Ancient civilizations used skids which are pallets without deck boards, to transport raw materials. For example, ancient Egyptian art shows loaded skids being pulled by people; however, it wasn’t until the 1920s that the machine-compatible pallet was conceived. The need for pallet-like transport was obvious during World War II, but it wasn’t until after the war that the pallet and forklift system became an integral part of logistics.
Pallets form a structural foundation for storing and shipping goods using a forklift, pallet jack, or other machinery. Goods are stacked on the pallet for easier movement when moving items within a facility or loading and unloading cargo. Originally, pallets were made of wood, but today’s pallets are made of various materials, including plastic.
Pallets have become such a big part of material transport that companies often overlook them when looking to reduce costs. They consider them a cost of doing business; yet, the average life cycle of wood pallets is three years. Plastic pallets can last three times longer.
Some of our plastic pallets are made of 100% recyclable materials and support a static load capacity of 12,000 pounds.
