Food, drink and pharma
Hygienic decks that can be washed and audited, with no timber to harbour moisture, pests or contamination in production areas.
Plastic pallets
Plastic pallets for hygiene, racking and export
Moulded plastic pallets supplied across the South Coast in nestable, light duty, hygienic and heavy duty racking grades. Washable, consistent to the millimetre, long-lived, and outside ISPM15 because there is no timber in them.
When plastic wins
The right choice when cleanliness or consistency matters
Plastic pallets cost more up front and repay it through service life, hygiene and predictability. For closed-loop operations, automated handling and washdown environments, they are usually the cheaper option over three years.
- Wash down between loads — no absorbed moisture, no splinters, no nails
- Dimensionally consistent for conveyors, AS/RS and robotic handling
- No treatment or marking required for export shipments
- Long service life in closed-loop and returnable transit systems
- Nestable versions cut the space and cost of returning empties
- Recyclable at end of life through the polymer stream
Grades
Plastic pallet specifications
Tell us the load weight, how it is handled and whether pallets come back to you, and we will point at the right grade rather than the dearest one.
| Pallet | Typical size | Typical use |
|---|---|---|
| Nestable light duty | 1200 x 1000mm / 1200 x 800mm | One-way and low-cost repeat shipments. Nests to save space on empty returns and storage. |
| Hygienic / food grade | 1200 x 1000mm / 1200 x 800mm | Smooth or open deck, no crevices, pressure washable. Food, drink, pharma and clean rooms. |
| Heavy duty racking | 1200 x 1000mm / 1200 x 800mm | Reinforced runners or nine feet, rated for beam racking and repeated forklift handling. |
| Export plastic pallet | Standard footprints | No solid timber, so no ISPM15 treatment or marking required for overseas shipment. |
| Half / display pallet | 800 x 600mm | Retail display, mixed loads and compact fulfilment operations. |
Where they work
Typical applications
Racking and automation
Consistent dimensions and reinforced runners for beam racking, shuttle systems and conveyor lines where a broken board stops the process.
Export without ISPM15
Shipping overseas without heat treatment, marks or inspection risk on the packaging itself. A practical route for regular exporters.

Lightweight alternative
Where weight is charged rather than durability rewarded, presswood pallets nest tightly and ship light. We supply both, so you can compare.
Find out moreReturnable systems
Closed-loop deliveries between your sites or to regular customers, where the same pallets come back and keep working for years.
Retail and fulfilment
Clean presentation for store deliveries and display, plus half-pallet sizes for mixed loads and tight aisles.

Compare plastic against timber for your operation
Send your load weight, handling method and annual volume. We will quote plastic and timber side by side so the decision is based on numbers, not preference.
