On this episode, Millwood’s Doug Gaier discusses why pallets are in short supply. SCMR’s Editorial Director Bob Trebilcock hosts.

This change is increasing efficiency by facilitating the same output of pallets with less team members available or employed at the facility.

Metal, paper, composite wood pallets fill niche needs in unit-load handling.

Experts make the case for elevating the humble roles of pallet and packaging design from a fragmented race for savings to a central part of an optimized supply chain.

Headed by Ralph Rupert, former director of the Center for Unit Load Design at Virginia Tech, the lab includes equipment to conduct ISTA, ASTM and ISO compression, vibration and shock tests, materials handling equipment and pallet and packaging design software applications.

Sure, conveyors, AGVs and AS/RS systems are the stars of ProMat. But wooden and plastic pallet companies were also exhibiting the latest innovations in unit-load handling with pallets. Wood pallet manufacturers emphasized new services for their customers.
