Supply chain professionals are all too aware of the simple calculation of, space plus weight equals cost, and we understand the constant battle to try to reduce just one of these elements.
Add to this, shortages of raw materials such as timber and steel and it’s easy to see why companies are struggling to source their core logistics and transportation product requirements. Changing to lighter and more environmentally friendly alternatives such as PALLITE®’s paper pallets, shipping crates and layer board need not be a choice influenced purely by external factors.
Forward planning can start now.
It’s all about making the right choice for you and your business to ensure effective ROI but also meeting the demands of your supply chain. Understanding that, just because the traditional materials are probably the more commonly purchased ones, they may not always be the best for you and for the future of your business, or the planet.
Changing from traditional wooden and plastic pallets for example does not automatically mean second best or a loss in strength and functionality.
All of PALLITE®’s products are constructed from honeycomb paper cardboard, noted for its superior strength, rigidity, reduced weight, minimum environmental impact, and are ISPM15 exempt.
In fact, lb for lb, honeycomb paper is stronger than steel!
The world of logistics needs solid and stable support materials to optimise the storage and transportation process and contribute to a better financial logistics performance. Paper honeycomb has successfully contributed to these challenges in transport and logistics for many years.
With a superior combination of strength to weight ratio, honeycomb paper pallets for example are 60-80% lighter than conventional pallets, saving on shipping costs, maximising loads and contributing towards huge CO2 reductions.
