Types of Plastic Pallet Container
 

Plastic pallet boxes are classified according to structure:

Integrated-type

We often call this kind of pallet box a plastic bulk container. In this style, the pallet and the box are connected as one body.
The plastic bulk container adopts one-time injection molding technology. The product design integrates the pallet and the box. It is especially suitable for use with forklifts and manual trucks, making turnover more flexible and convenient. Depending on the box, it can be divided into closed deck boxes and mesh (open deck) boxes
The optional accessories for plastic bulk containers can be purchased according to the actual use:
① Rubber wheels: Generally, each bulk container is equipped with 6 rubber wheels to facilitate flexible movement.
② Lid: The lid is designed with an inverted style, which has stronger sealing and makes the stacking effect of bulk containers better.
③ Water outlet: When a large closed bulk container is used to store liquid items, it is a drain designed to facilitate the discharge of stored liquid items from the closed pallet box.

Folding type

The bottom pallet of the collapsible pallet box is connected to the box wall and can be folded inward when empty, which greatly reduces the storage volume and logistics transportation costs when the box is empty. The load capacity of the foldable pallet box is usually 1T for dynamic load and 4T for static load. The material HDPE has strong impact resistance through foaming treatment. The base and side panels have been strengthened to increase the strength and life of the product. Drop doors and information card slots can be added to the sides, and dustproof lids can be added without affecting stacking.

Combined type

This kind of plastic pallet box is often called a spliced pallet box, and the upper box body and lower pallet structure can be detached. They can be customized in size according to requirements, usually with interlocking plastic pallets on the bottom and removable and foldable walls. Splicing pallet boxes can be added with lids and locks, and can have built-in steel tubes and metal edges to increase the load capacity.

Material of Plastic Pallet Container
 

Plastic pallet boxes are usually made of HDPE or PP materials.

Polypropylene (PP)

Polypropylene is tough and has a certain amount of elasticity. When making plastic pallet boxes, PP is often used in scenarios that require higher impact resistance and wear resistance. PP is relatively light but still provides good load-bearing capacity and stability.

High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE)

HDPE is generally stiffer and has higher strength and stiffness. At the same time, it has high resistance to chemical corrosion and wear and is suitable for various harsh environments. HDPE pallet boxes are suitable for the transportation of heavy goods and are often used in environments that require higher load-bearing capacity and durability.
