FAQ about Export Pallets

Do plastic pallets need ISPM 15 treatment for export?

No. Plastic Pallets are not made from timber, so they are generally exempt from ISPM-15 heat treatment or fumigation requirements. This can make export preparation simpler compared with wooden pallets.

Yes. Plastic pallets are commonly used for export because they are clean, consistent in size, lightweight, and suitable for domestic and/or international freight. They are often used by exporters who want to avoid the treatment requirements and inconsistency associated with wooden pallets.

The main advantages are hygiene, consistency, reduced treatment requirements, and ease of handling. Plastic pallets do not splinter, absorb moisture in the same way as timber, or require export treatment like wooden pallets.

Export plastic pallets are available in different load ratings. Lightweight export pallets are suitable for many one-way and general freight applications, while heavier-duty plastic pallets may be required for dense products, repeated handling, racking, or harsh transport conditions.

The right pallet depends on your load weight, product type, pallet size, destination, handling method, and whether the pallet is one-way, reusable, stacked, or racked. Eco Pallets can help recommend a suitable option based on your application.

Yes. Many export plastic pallets can be reused, depending on the model, load weight, handling method and condition after use. Some are designed mainly for one-way export, while others may be suitable for repeated use in closed-loop or domestic supply chains.

Yes. Most export series plastic pallets are designed to be lightweight while still providing enough strength for general export, warehousing, and transport applications. This can help reduce manual handling effort and may assist where freight weight is a consideration.

Some plastic pallets are nestable, meaning they stack inside each other when empty. This helps reduce storage space and may lower return freight or warehouse storage requirements.

Yes. Plastic export pallets are often used in food, beverage, and agricultural export applications because they are clean, consistent and do not splinter like timber. The best pallet choice will depend on the product, load weight, hygiene requirements, and handling process.

Yes. Plastic export pallets are commonly considered for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical supply chains where cleanliness, consistency, and contamination reduction are important. They can be a practical alternative to timber in environments where hygiene and presentation matter.

FAQ

What are heavy duty plastic pallets used for?
Heavy duty plastic pallets are used for warehouse storage, distribution, racking, shipping,and repeated industrial handling. They are a strong option for businesses that need a  reusable plastic pallet for heavier loads or more demanding operations than light duty or medium duty pallets.

Eco Pallets offers two Australian-size heavy duty plastic pallets in this series: the ECO- 1160L, which is 1160 x 1160 x 160 mm, and the ECO-1165LS, which is 1165 x 1165 x 153 mm. Both are designed for warehouse, storage, and racking operations.

Yes. The ECO-1160L and ECO-1165LS are Australian standard sized plastic pallets, making them suitable for many Australian warehouse, transport, and racking environments where a square pallet footprint is preferred.

Yes. Both pallets are designed for racking applications and are listed with a racking safe working load of 2,000 kg on beam racking and 1,000 kg in drive-in racking, based on a unified load. Racking suitability should always be confirmed against the product, load type, and site setup.

Both Australian-size heavy duty pallets are notched to help lock into standard beam racking. This design helps the pallet sit more securely on the beams, which is useful for warehouse storage, racking operations, and repeated forklift handling.

The ECO-1160L and ECO-1165LS are both listed with a static SWL of 10,000 kg, dynamic SWL of 2,000 kg, and racking SWL of 2,000 kg on beam racking / 1,000 kg in drive-in racking, based on a unified load.

The ECO-1160L is 1160 x 1160 x 160 mm, weighs 17.6 kg, and has 4-way forklift entry with 2-way pallet jack entry. The ECO-1165LS is 1165 x 1165 x 153 mm, weighs 24.3 kg, and has 2-way forklift and 2-way pallet jack entry.

Yes. Heavy duty plastic pallets can replace timber pallets in many warehouse, storage, distribution, and industrial applications. They offer a cleaner, more consistent, and reusable alternative, while avoiding common timber issues such as splinters, loose nails, and moisture absorption.

Yes. Heavy duty plastic pallets are often considered for food and beverage, pharmaceutical, mining, warehouse, and industrial applications where strength, cleanliness, consistency, and racking suitability are important. The ECO-1160L and ECO-1165LS are both listed across relevant Eco Pallets categories including food and beverage, pharmaceutical, and mining.

The right heavy duty plastic pallet depends on your load weight, pallet size, racking type,  handling equipment, warehouse layout, and industry requirements. Eco Pallets can help  confirm whether the ECO-1160L, ECO-1165LS or another pallet from the broader range is the best fit for your application.
