standard euro pallet
The standard Euro pallet, also known as the EUR pallet, represents a fundamental component of modern logistics and material handling. Measuring 800 x 1200 x 144 millimeters, this standardized wooden platform serves as the backbone of European transport and storage operations. Manufactured according to strict specifications set by the European Pallet Association (EPAL), each Euro pallet consists of precisely arranged deck boards, stringers, and blocks, capable of supporting dynamic loads up to 1,500 kg and static loads up to 4,000 kg. The design incorporates four-way entry points, enabling efficient handling from all sides by forklifts and pallet jacks. The pallets feature distinctive EPAL markings and quality control stamps, ensuring authenticity and compliance with international standards. Their robust construction typically employs kiln-dried timber treated to prevent pest infestation and meets ISPM 15 regulations for international shipping. The standardized dimensions facilitate optimal space utilization in warehouses, trucks, and containers, while the consistent quality ensures seamless integration with automated handling systems and racking equipment.
