Types of Molded Pallets: A Comprehensive Guide to Their Designs and Applications

 Molded pallets have gained significant recognition and acceptance in recent years, leading to a rapid increase in their usage across various industries and sectors. Their diverse designs cater to specific applications, enhancing efficiency in material handling and logistics. Below is an overview of different types of molded pallets:

1. Nine-Legged Molded Pallet



The nine-legged molded pallet is a traditional and widely used design. Manufactured using pallet molding machines with pressures ranging from 800 to 1600 tons, it's recommended to use 1250-ton or 1600-ton presses for optimal production. These pallets are produced through a one-time molding process using specialized MDI adhesive, achieving an output of 10-15 pallets per hour. Each pallet weighs between 10kg to 25kg and supports dynamic loads from 500kg to 2500kg. Their nestable design allows stacking up to 41 pallets within a 2-meter height, significantly saving on transportation and storage costs. However, the surface features nine recesses, which may affect the placement of certain items like beverage bottles or cartons, and they are not suitable for roller conveyor systems.

2. Double-Faced Molded Pallet





An improvement upon the nine-legged design, the double-faced molded pallet consists of two combined surfaces. It can be produced using pallet molding machines with pressures from 800 to 1600 tons. Due to its dual-component structure, production requires at least two presses, resulting in a production efficiency of about half that of standard molded pallets. This design reduces or eliminates surface recesses, making it suitable for use on roller conveyors and storage racks, offering enhanced dynamic load-bearing capacity.

3. Rackable Molded Pallet



Similar to the nine-legged pallet, the rackable molded pallet is specifically designed for storage rack usage and compatibility with automated roller conveyor systems. Its structural integrity allows it to withstand the demands of racking and automated handling processes.

4. Flat Molded Pallet



Recently developed by PalletsBiz, the flat surface molded pallet features a specially designed mold and is produced using a 1600-ton press. Utilizing specialized MDI adhesive, production rates reach 10-15 pallets per hour. These pallets weigh between 15kg to 25kg and support dynamic loads from 500kg to 2500kg. With a smooth surface and superior load-bearing capacity, they are suitable for transporting various goods, providing excellent protection against damage. Additionally, minor modifications enable their use on automated roller conveyor systems, making this design highly popular in the current market.

5. Photovoltaic Panel Pallet

Developed by PalletsBiz to meet the needs of photovoltaic panel manufacturers in China and Southeast Asia, this pallet measures up to 2500x1300mm and weighs between 45kg to 50kg. Its stackable design significantly reduces transportation and storage costs. Compared to traditional solid wood photovoltaic pallets, it offers lighter weight and cost advantages. Notably, clients in Vietnam have entered into purchase agreements with PalletsBiz, marking the company's first overseas order for photovoltaic pallets.

PalletsBiz and PresswoodMachine continue to innovate, developing new pallet designs to meet the diverse needs of clients across various industries and sectors.

The Future of Sustainable Logistics: Bamboo Waste in Molded Pallet Production

Image
 In the global push for sustainability, industries constantly seek innovative solutions to reduce waste and create eco-friendly products. One remarkable advancement is the production of molded pallets using bamboo waste. These bamboo pallets offer an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional wood or plastic pallets while maintaining durability, cost-efficiency, and performance. Why Choose Bamboo for Molded Pallets? Bamboo is one of the fastest-growing plants on Earth, with some species growing up to 91 cm (35 inches) in a single day. It is not only highly renewable but also incredibly strong. Bamboo fibers have a tensile strength comparable to steel, making them an excellent material for pressed pallets . Compared to wooden pallets, bamboo pallets require fewer resources to produce and are less harmful to the environment. For example: Bamboo can regenerate fully within 3-5 years. Bamboo pallets can reduce carbon emissions by up to 30% compared to traditional wooden pal...
