How Metal Pallets Are Better to Plastic Pallets
In the last few months, Ohio based company Compliance Packaging International Ltd. published a new website highlighting heavy duty 48 x 40 metal pallets that out perform plastic pallets in several key ways.
To start, our metal pallets are a superior long term investment when measured against other metal pallets and plastic pallets because of their reasonable cost and long lasting heavy duty design. Many companies that want a lower cost per trip over time have tested and found metal pallets to be cheaper than plastic pallets.
In addition to lowering costs, corporations in many major industries are realizing the hygienic, environmental and safety advantages of the metal pallet type compared to plastic pallets.
Companies that have stringent hygienic requirements find the metal pallet is better to plastic pallets because it can be cleaned and disinfected easier, and can be made more bacteria resistant.
While the metal pallet is not flammable and cannot be ignited in a fire, the plastic pallet creates a serious fire danger in warehouses especially when concentrated in big numbers.
Plastic pallets are not as strong as metal pallets, crush under heavy loads quicker and are more dangerous when stacked with unstable loads. As a result, replacing plastic pallets with metal pallets in a warehouse often lowers workplace injures.
Unlike plastic pallets that are not repairable when cracked or broken, metal pallets are easily repairable for longer use.
Plastic pallets also afford less protection during shipping compared with metal pallets. Our metal pallets are rated to carry static loads of up to 40000 pounds and dynamic load up to 10000 pounds greatly exceeding the capacity of most plastic pallets on the world market place.
Moreover, the metal 48 x 40 distribution pallet can carry as much as 3500 pounds in an open edge racking systems. Most plastic pallets only can hold 2200 pounds in an open racking system.
Corporations that are looking for the most environmental solution might be surprised to find that recycled metal recovers more energy and has a greater value than recycled plastic.
