They can not only improve the efficiency of cargo handling, but also protect the cargo from damage during transportation. As an important economic region in the world, Europe's plastic pallet specifications are representative and influential. This article will deeply explore the European plastic pallet specifications to provide reference for relevant industry professionals.

 

 

 

Generally speaking, Euro pallets come in six size categories, ranging from standard sizes to quarter pallets (for small traders). The two most common standard Euro pallet sizes are EUR/EUR1 and EUR2.

EUR1 measures 1200 mm long, 800 mm wide, 144 mm high and weighs 20 to 25 kg.

EUR2 measures 1000 mm long, 1200 mm wide, 144 mm high and weighs about 33 to 35 kg.

EPAL (European Pallet Association) pallets can support a weight of about 1500 kg and a static load of up to 4000 kg.

The table below lists the EPAL categories, the corresponding Euro pallet dimensions and the expected weights.
