Plastic Pallets

Currently, there are two main categories of mainstream materials in the plastic pallet market: PP (polyethylene) and PE (polypropylene). Plastic pallets of these two materials have their own advantages and disadvantages, and they can complement each other in practical applications. Simply put, plastic pallets made of PE are more cold-resistant and are more widely used in the food industry, because many foods inevitably need to be stored in cold storage. Plastic pallets made of PP material are more resistant to falling, have stronger impact resistance, and are less likely to be damaged due to improper operation.

2. Brand new materials and recycled materials

Plastic pallets are renewable products. Used plastic pallets will be recycled and remade into raw materials, which is often called recycled materials. Even though plastic pallets made of entirely new materials are durable, different customers have different needs. For enterprises that are only used for a short period of time and have low load-bearing requirements, plastic pallets made of new materials are not cost-effective. Generally speaking, the color of the plastic pallet can be used to determine whether it is new material or recycled material. The color of the new material plastic pallet is bright, while the recycled material will be darker in color. Of course, there will also be mixtures, which require more professional technical means to judge.
