The 40 x 48 mirror-image pallet is a lightweight, robust packaging solution used for export shipping. Its common footprint and low weight make it ideal for efficiently packing out shipping containers and reducing freight costs. The sealed plastic structure resists moisture, mold, and other potential contaminants from harming the packaged products.
Stringent international regulations, like ISPM 15, do not apply to plastic pallets as they do to wood, eliminating the requirement to treat the pallet. Enhanced durability extends the pallet’s longevity and allows it to be returned and reused if needed. If not, the pallet is manufactured from sustainable materials that can be recycled and repurposed.
- Dimensional consistency and its lightweight structure limit the cost for long international transits.
- Exempt from ISPM 15 international regulations to avoid extra time and money needed to treat the pallet.
- Non-porous and hygienic for easy cleaning and to prevent liquids from damaging finished goods.
- Custom capabilities – including colors, molded-in nomenclature and labels, and injection-molded inserts can be applied.
Why Choose Plastic Pallets for Export?
Compared to wood or cardboard alternatives, export compliant packaging made from plastic delivers superior performance across the supply chain. Here’s why companies are making the switch to plastic export pallets:
Lightweight
Our lightweight, plastic pallets weigh significantly less than wood pallets, helping reduce freight costs. This is particularly critical for reducing shipping costs for international shipments.
Cost Effective
Plastic pallets can cost as low as $10 per pallet, offering a more affordable solution than standard wood pallet options.
Customizable and Convenient Design
We offer specialized features such as custom colors, RFID tags, and more to streamline inventory management and improve visibility throughout your supply chain.
Sanitary
Plastic pallets resist moisture, mold, pests, and other contaminants. This makes them ideal for industries with strict hygiene requirements. Export compliant packaging that meets international shipping standards helps prevent delays, rejections, or shipment restrictions while maintaining product integrity from origin to destination.
Safe
Safety is imperative when exporting goods. Wood packaging materials are susceptible to breakage, which can cause exposed nails and splinters. Plastic pallets reduce workplace injuries, protect goods, and create a safer handling environment at every touchpoint.
