structural foam moldingPlastic and nitrogen gas are injected into a closed cavity mold.The part is cooled to create the exact shape of the mold.The combined use of these materials creates a cellular core that forms a solid skin. These pallets have high strength to weight ratio, reduced deflection, accurate tolerances, are cleanable, and have superior static load capacity for racking, distribution, stacking, and ASRS equipment. single or twin sheet thermoforming(HMWPE)In single sheet thermoforming, a sheet of plastic is heated and then drawn by vacuum over a mold. In twin sheet thermoforming, two sheets of plastic are heated and drawn by vacuum over separate molds and then fused together through pressure to form a structural double walled part. Look for products that have CISS and CITS in the name. Pallets made by thermoforming are lightweight, cleanable, have flex memory and are impact resistant.Applications include distribution, textile, food, auto assembly and work-in-process applications. injection moldingPlastic is injected, under pressure, into a closed cavity mold, then the material is cooled to ensure that it maintains the exact shape of the mold.This process produces a solid wall, solid core part. Look for products with CISC and CIISC in the name. Injection molded pallets are lightweight and cleanable, have accurate tolerances, superior static load capacity, and superior impact resistance with reduced deflection. Applications include racking, distribution, ASRS equipment, work-in-process and cold storage. |
In the last few decades, progressive industries and world-class companies have converted from wood pallets to plastic pallets for their work-in-process, storage and distribution applications.They quickly recognized the economic, ergonomic and environmental benefits that plastic pallets offer: economic:
In a closed loop system, plastic pallets make a tremendous number of trips before being recycled. On a cost per trip basis, plastic pallets represent great savings over wood pallets. Plastic pallets rapidly realize their initial investment and continue to perform during the course of their service life. ergonomic:Plastic pallets provide a safe and comfortable handling solution, which improves workplace safety. They are dimensionally stable, consistent in weight and non-porous. In some cases, they are lighter than wood and their smooth and contoured construction is free of nails, splinters and rust. environmental:
Using plastic preserves natural resources, while reducing waste. Wood pallets consume precious natural resources, up to 10 million trees are cut each year to produce wood pallets.When retired from service, wood pallets are sent to landfills.Plastic pallets offer a much longer life and can be recycled into other useful products at the end of their service life. |
