Use for One-Way or Captive Applications

The 350 series plastic pallet is offered in a durable, multi-trip HDPE/PP material or a ridged, single-trip lower-cost ACM material. Be sure to ask your Nelson representative which material is right for your application.

Save Money and Time

The materials handling industry has seen an increase in demand for small custom pallets in every industry to help companies optimize unit load costs. Why? No one wants to pay for unused space on a truck or a container.

Here's another benefit - retailers can get more flexibility for in-store displays. Stores can easily move product onto the sales floor without restacking. Think of the time savings!

The 350 series semi-custom plastic pallet is perfect for these industries and more:
  • Medical
  • Food
  • Retail
  • Electronics
  • Air freight
  • Produce

Still Considering a Custom Pallet?

Even if your company has the budget and demand for designing a custom plastic pallet, the following common challenges may change your mind:

  • Custom plastic pallets are expensive to design.
    Unless you need over 30,000 plastic pallets per year, creating a custom-size mold is simply not cost effective.

  • Custom pallet molds depreciate quickly
    Much like an automobile, the minute you drive it off the lot (start using the mold), you’re that much closer to buying a new one.

  • Finding a source for custom pallet molds is difficult
    If cost and depreciation are not enough to discourage you, think about the time, hassles and pitfalls of finding an outside source for handling the production and maintenance of your expensive mold. 

How would you use this semi-custom plastic pallet? Tell us and ask for a sample today to see how the 350 series pallet can save you time and money.

I would like to get a quote for the cost of a 24X23 sized pallet. I would not need thousands of them - perhaps only 20 or 30.

Thanks

Looking for a quote on a half pallet. 48" x 20" dimensions. We would probably order 1,000 at a time if that changes the quote any. Thanks!
