Dusseldorfer Pallets
July 9th, 2008Every company that works with pallets has specific wants and needs that are directly related to those pallets. They may be used for storage or for transport purposes. They may be used to add extra space to a small storage facility, or just to keep certain goods off the floor to comply with health and safety regulations. As such, there is no one size fits all with pallets, whether made of wood, metal or plastic. This is the ain reason why the Dusseldorfer pallet, or pallet, has become popular.
Dusseldorfer pallets are relatively new to the UK, but have already made a massive impact on all sorts of industries, although their presence has been particularly felt in the retail sector. They can also be used in a wide range of industries, from pharmaceutical to food to home to chemical. There is no limit to their use.
The Dusseldorfer pallets are usually made of timber so they are similar in appearance to wooden pallets. The only difference between them and the regular wooden pallets that you find in various industries every day and that is their size. Dusseldorfer pallets are smaller than their regular wooden counterparts by half. They actually measure just 600mm by 800mm. As such, their size makes them much more convenient for the transportation of smaller loads and orders as well as for storing goods in small spaces. One of the main reasons for their growing popularity is actually the latter because supermarkets and other big stores are using them for display purposes. They represent much less of a hazard and yet are perfect for the display of various stock items.
The Dusseldorfer pallets are much more versatile than regular pallets as a result of the smaller dimensions. They can fit into tighter spaces and can also be easily stacked for use at a later date. Another point is that they are also more cost effective. As with all other wooden pallets though, they are durable and incredibly strong as so will stand the test of time as long as they are protected against the elements as far as possible. All of these qualities add up to the Dusseldorfer pallet being one of the best possible solutions to your storage and transportation problems. Their popularity will undoubtedly continue to grow so they are worth consideration if your company is looking into investing in pallets in the near future!
