Some plastic pallets have smooth surface which will reduce damage to stored products. Other plastic pallets are geared towards drainage. The types of plastic pallets are defined in the following categories.
Structural Foam – Plastic and gas are injected into a mold. The materials combine to create a cellular core surrounded by a smooth outer skin offering high floor load capacity.
Solid Wall Molding – Powdered plastic is added to a closed cavity mold as the mold is rotated on all axis while heat is applied. The mold is then cooled which produces a solid wall, hollow plastic part. This type offers a high impact strength and long life.
Extrusion Molding – The plastic pallets are melted down and extruded through steel dies forming a solid wall hollow pallet profile.
Injection Molding – Plastic is injected, under pressure, into a mold. This process produces a solid wall, solid core part. This type of molding offers an extremely high durability.
