Your logistics need a pallet the market doesn’t make.
Beyond our standard EPAL and CP range, we source, build or rework pallets to your specification.
Industrial requirements are not always covered by standard pallet specifications. Custom pallet projects may require specialist supplier sourcing, made-to-order manufacturing or modifications to existing load carriers. FlatCargo supports professional buyers across three areas: industrial pallet sourcing, custom pallet manufacturing and technical modifications.
Industrial pallet sourcing involves identifying suppliers and procurement solutions capable of meeting specific technical, operational and commercial requirements.
Review pallet dimensions, materials, estimated volumes, delivery locations and lead-time requirements to establish supplier selection criteria.
Identify potential manufacturing and supply options, then assess proposals against the approved technical specifications and purchasing conditions.
Custom pallet manufacturing addresses industrial requirements involving specific dimensions, load characteristics or handling conditions that standard pallet models may not satisfy.
Examine drawings, measurements, load distribution, storage conditions and transport constraints before selecting an appropriate pallet design.
Identify suitable manufacturing capabilities and confirm the proposed construction, quantities and conditions before production is authorised.
Technical modifications to pallets may be considered when existing load carriers need to meet revised dimensional, load, storage or material handling requirements.
Assess the pallet's original construction, dimensions and proposed adjustments against its intended industrial application.
Review feasibility, load safety and any applicable requirements before approving modifications or returning equipment to service.
Technical Feasibility: Every custom pallet project requires clearly defined dimensions, load conditions, handling methods and intended applications. Manufacturing feasibility, load capacity and any applicable regulatory requirements must be verified before production or technical modification. ISPM 15 requirements should also be confirmed where international wood packaging shipments are involved.
Alongside custom pallet manufacturing and industrial sourcing, FlatCargo provides access to several wooden pallet formats for transportation, storage and material handling. Compare six wooden pallet types according to their dimensions, construction and intended applications.
The 800 × 600 mm wooden half-pallet is a compact load carrier used for selected warehouse operations, retail distribution and point-of-sale logistics.
Its smaller footprint can be useful when preparing goods for limited floor-space applications. Handling compatibility, load capacity and construction details depend on the selected model.
A lightweight wooden pallet can be used for selected shipments where a heavy-duty load carrier is not required. The 1200 × 800 mm format is widely used in European freight operations.
Model selection depends on cargo weight, load distribution, handling conditions and whether the pallet is intended for a single-use shipping operation. Confirm any applicable ISPM 15 requirements for international wood packaging shipments.
The semi-heavy wooden pallet is an intermediate pallet category between lightweight and more heavily reinforced designs. It may be considered for industrial storage and transport operations requiring a specific construction profile.
The choice of model should take into account the weight of the goods, handling equipment and support conditions. Racking suitability must be confirmed against the technical specifications of the exact model.
Heavy-duty wooden pallets are designed for industrial applications that may require more substantial pallet construction. They can be considered for selected manufacturing, metalworking and building materials supply chains.
Pallet design must account for cargo mass, contact points, lifting equipment, load distribution and transport stresses. A heavy-duty designation does not establish a universal load capacity.
The VMF wooden pallet is a format associated with selected glass manufacturing and bottling supply chains. It may be used for transporting packaged glass products, including bottles, jars and containers.
Suitability depends on the palletisation plan, type of packaging and warehouse handling requirements. Check the stability, load specifications and compatibility of the selected model before ordering.
The Düsseldorf pallet is a half-pallet format used in selected retail distribution and material handling operations. Depending on the model, its construction can incorporate specific metal reinforcement elements.
This type of pallet can be considered for retail shipments, order preparation and store display applications. For an EPAL 7 version, verify the applicable design specifications, marking and certification before ordering.
Technical Information: Product dimensions refer to the pallet formats presented in this catalog. Load ratings, empty weights, stacking limitations, racking compatibility and ISPM 15 treatment must be confirmed for each specific model. Standardised or certified pallets also require verification of applicable markings and specifications.
Certain industrial operations require custom pallets designed around specific dimensions, load characteristics or handling conditions. FlatCargo helps professional buyers assess custom industrial pallet solutions for three categories of technical requirements.
Engineering assessments for custom wooden pallets with non-standard dimensions intended for long profiles, machinery, industrial equipment or irregularly shaped products. Dimensions should be defined according to the cargo footprint, support points and compatible handling equipment.
Assessment of reinforced pallets for industrial loads, based on cargo mass, weight distribution and transport conditions. Automated warehouses, pallet racking and stacker cranes may also require specific dimensional tolerances and validated load performance.
Selection of load carriers for specific requirements in sectors such as food processing, pharmaceuticals and international shipping. Depending on the project, options may include kiln-dried timber, specialised finishes or industrial plastic pallets. Applicable hygiene, material and documentation requirements must be confirmed separately.
Technical Validation: Non-standard dimensions, rated load capacities, manufacturing tolerances and sector-specific requirements should be documented in the project specifications. ISPM 15 treatment requirements, applicable EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation obligations and intended operating conditions must be assessed according to the product, destination and relevant rules. Product illustrations do not demonstrate or certify compliance.
A custom pallet procurement project begins with a clearly defined technical specification. FlatCargo supports B2B buyers through a structured process covering requirements assessment, industrial supplier sourcing and technical validation before a commercial proposal is considered.
Review the buyer's technical specifications and operating requirements. This assessment may include pallet dimensions, intended load, weight distribution, transport conditions, handling equipment and estimated purchase volumes.
Outcome: A defined technical and purchasing brief.Identify and consult potential suppliers or manufacturing partners able to assess the custom pallet requirements. Compare available options, manufacturing capabilities, potential lead times and proposed commercial conditions.
Outcome: Supply options selected for further assessment.Review the proposed pallet design and relevant manufacturing specifications. Where appropriate, the assessment may include drawings, samples or additional technical verification before a quotation and delivery conditions are finalised.
Outcome: A commercial proposal subject to the agreed technical requirements.Project Approval: Supplier identification, technical feasibility and commercial terms depend on the specifications and the available manufacturing or sourcing options. Load capacity, applicable standards and any required certifications must be confirmed before an order is approved for production.
Do you need custom wooden pallets, non-standard dimensions or load carriers designed around specific industrial requirements?
Send FlatCargo your project details for an assessment of possible custom pallet manufacturing, industrial sourcing and technical adaptation solutions. Technical drawings, handling requirements and estimated purchasing volumes will help define the project.
Technical Feasibility: Load capacities, dimensions, material suitability and any applicable requirements must be confirmed before manufacturing. Submitting a request does not constitute technical approval or a production commitment.
