Pallets and containers are the fundamental products for transporting, distributing, and storing almost all products and materials.
And in the autumn issue of Plastics Business Magazine, manufacturing journalist T R Cutler notes that Green sustainable packaging solutions are as simple as reusing containers.
"Using containers and pallets made of plastic offers benefits for sustainable and efficient operations. Plastic pallets and containers are reusable and do not require treatment for pests," observes Cutler.
"The benefits of plastic pallets and containers include hygiene, constant quality and dimension, no splintering or nails, and no water absorption. Plastic pallets and containers also are weather-resistant, stack and nest for excellent space utilization, can be easily repaired or replaced, and can be uniquely colored.”
Used returnable packaging already is utilized extensively and many firms have incorporated this green initiative into their distribution system to some extent. Since almost all plastics businesses sell to other manufacturing companies, the returnable container portion of that equation provides a unit that is strong, stackable, and forklift-transportable.
With the right returnable container (often a plastic pallet container), the products are protected from damage during transportation. The used pallet container works like a fortress – if anything hits, stabs, or bumps the container, the container is strong enough to protect whatever is being stored or transported inside.
