Differences between plastic pallets PP (polypropylene) and PE (polyethylene)

Plastic pallets, widely used as carriers in logistics, warehousing, and other industries, have material choices that critically impact their performance and service life. In the manufacturing of plastic pallets, PP (polypropylene) and PE (polyethylene) are two of the most commonly used materials. Each has its own unique advantages and disadvantages.

The function of adding anti-slip pads to plastic pallets

There are thousands of types of goods carried on plastic pallets. The surface of pure plastic pallets is relatively smooth, and the plastic material itself is not slip-resistant. If the goods loaded on them are also very smooth, it is easy for the goods to fall off. Therefore, our company's pallets are generally equipped with rubber anti-slip mats when leaving the factory. These mats are integrated with the pallets during production and are very firm, playing a significant role in preventing slipping and securing the goods. Additionally, anti-slip mats are also installed under the pallet's entry slots, which are the contact points between the forklift legs and the plastic pallets. This is especially important in environments after rain or in humid conditions, where slipping between plastic pallets and metal forklift legs is very likely. Adding rubber anti-slip mats can effectively prevent pallets from sliding off the forklift legs. The sorting of logistics warehouse plastic pallets depends on the work content, whether it is purely manual sorting or assisted by technology for semi-automated sorting. If it is purely manual, the efficiency is not likely to be very high. Semi-automated sorting may be relatively faster, such as machines moving goods from shelves to you for sorting. However, unmanned automated sorting is the future trend in logistics warehouse sorting, which may lead to a large number of frontline workers losing their jobs. How can one remain competitive in the future? By working as a logistics warehouse plastic pallet sorter, an ordinary position, one can learn some basic knowledge of logistics warehousing and prepare for promotion to higher positions in the future.

How are plastic pallets produced and manufactured?

Plastic pallets are generally produced by injection molding (some are also made by blow molding). Manufacturers of plastic pallets must have injection molding machines and molds. Since plastic pallets are usually large in size and heavy in weight, production typically requires high-tonnage injection molding machines with a clamping force of at least 3000 tons. The estimated cost of such machines is several million. The price of plastic pallet molds varies depending on their complexity, generally ranging from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands.

Plastic pallets play a very important role in business and logistics.

With the rapid development of the logistics industry, plastic pallets, as an important component in logistics transportation, are playing an increasingly important role. Plastic pallets have characteristics such as corrosion resistance, easy cleaning, and long service life, as well as advantages like being lightweight and easy to handle, making them indispensable logistics equipment in transportation.
