Pallets & crates | packaging supplies
Crown Packaging offers a wide range of packaging supplies, including a variety of pallets and crates, to ensure your business's product protection.
what are pallets & crates?
Pallets and crates are packaging tools used to protect items either alone or in bulk. They are also used to make the transportation process easier, giving a better structure for shipping and movement in storage.
A crate is a sturdy, lockable box that brings advanced safety for delicate or irregularly shaped items. Items on a pallet are wrapped in a stretch wrap to hold them in place, making the items more accessible if needed and easier to handle.
applications for pallets & crates
Crates are a great option when you need better protection for products. The crate reduces movement during shipment, making it typically used for irregularly shaped, or fragile items. Crates are often used during shipment overseas because of their sturdiness and lockable features.
Pallets are used to combine multiple items into a single package and are typically made out of wood or plastic. These pallets are most commonly used for short distances, such as inside a warehouse.
Pallets and crates are reusable, durable, and eco-friendly. They are used in many industries, such as logistics, manufacturing, warehouses, and retail.
Types of pallets
Corrugated Pallet - This type of pallet is lighter than other pallets, making it easier to handle and lift. The corrugated pallet is made up of strong durable cardboard and can hold up to 1600 lbs.
Plastic Pallet - The plastic pallet is better for withholding lighter, fragile items in comparison to the other pallets. The plastic pallet is a long-term product as it can be reused. This pallet is great for products with strict hygienic requirements because it can be easily cleaned.
Wood Pallet - The wood pallet is the most commonly used. It is a less expensive option and can hold up to around 3,000 lbs. This pallet is environmentally friendly and can be reused for similar products.
