Pallets Typology

The pallets are horizontal platforms, typically fixed to a frame with a lower platform, which allow commercial goods to be shipped in a stable manner, giving them support so that pallet trucks or forklifts and other lifting devices can lift them.

Most pallets are made of wood, paper/cardboard, metal and plastic.

Due to globalisation it was necessary to create the "standard" size pallets referred to in the ISO (International Organization for Standardization) list which Portugal is part of.

EUROPALLET

The most used pallets in Portugal are the 120×80cm
(European Pallet).

UNIVERSAL

The other model widely used in Portugal is the 120×100cm
(American/Universal or ISO pallet).
