Buy wooden pallet collars

In the world of storage and transportation, the efficient use of available space is crucial. In this regard, pallet collars are a valuable tool to maximize the capacity of pallets while ensuring the protection of the goods stored on them. In this article, we provide you with an overview of the importance, use and benefits of pallet collars.

Origin and intended use

Pallet collars are hinged, modular frames, usually made of wood, that can be attached to pallets to raise their sides. Their main function is to extend the available storage or transportation space of a pallet while providing additional protection for the goods.

Standardized pallet collars

Depending on the pallet type, there are various standardized sizes of pallet collars, which are also available in different heights:

• Euro collars: Suitable for the standardized Euro pallet with dimensions of 1,200 x 800 mm.
• Industrial collars: For the industrial pallet measuring 1,200 x 1,000 mm.
• Half pallet collars: Developed for half pallets measuring 800 x 600 mm.

The flexibility in height selection allows companies to customize the pallet collars to their specific needs to maximize both space utilization and product protection.

Advantages of stacking frames

• Flexibility: pallet collars are modular, i.e. they can be stacked as required to increase or decrease the height of the pallet.
• Protection: They provide additional protection against dust, dirt and mechanical damage, especially for fragile or irregularly shaped goods.
• Reusability: Most pallet collars are foldable and therefore easy to store when not in use. They are also robust and can be reused for many years.
• Ecological advantage: Wooden stacking frames in particular are environmentally friendly and biodegradable.

Sustainability and wood origin

As stacking frames are often made of wood, it is important to pay attention to the sustainability and origin of the wood. Certifications such as FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) or PEFC (Program for the Endorsement of Forest Certification) can ensure that the wood comes from sustainably managed forests.
