Why aluminium pallets are the best choice for
industry and logistics

An aluminium pallet combines two properties that are actually opposites: it is lightweight and extremely strong at the same time. Whereas wooden pallets used to reach their limits, our aluminium pallets can safely carry loads of several hundred to 3,000 kilograms, depending on their design. This makes them ideal industrial pallets for heavy machinery, components or large packaging.

Aluminium is a hygienic material. Aluminium pallets do not absorb liquids, do not harbour germs and are easy to disinfect. This distinguishes them from wood, which can absorb moisture and promote mould or bacteria growth. This makes aluminium pallets ideal for use in clean rooms, the pharmaceutical industry and the food sector. Where absolute cleanliness and sterility are required, they offer maximum safety.

While wooden and plastic pallets need to be replaced or repaired regularly, aluminum pallets impress with their exceptionally long service life. Thanks to their corrosion resistance and material strength, they remain usable for many years—even under heavy use. The higher initial investment quickly pays for itself through lower replacement and maintenance costs.

Aluminium pallets are temperature-resistant and retain their shape even under extreme conditions. In deep-freeze warehouses, cold chains or hot production environments, they are significantly more reliable than plastic pallets, which can become brittle or deform. Aluminium pallets can be used at temperatures ranging from -40 to +80 °C. This means that companies benefit from a safe transport and storage solution across all climate zones.

An often underestimated advantage: aluminium is non-flammable. While plastic pallets release toxic gases in the event of a fire and wooden pallets act as an additional fire accelerant, aluminium pallets remain stable and fireproof. They are therefore the safe choice for companies with high safety standards, such as those in the chemical or pharmaceutical industries.

Although aluminium pallets are more robust than many other transport solutions, they are significantly lighter than steel pallets. Particularly in air freight and export logistics, the lower weight reduces transport costs and also improves the carbon footprint.

Aluminium pallets can be used worldwide without restrictions. Wooden pallets must be treated or fumigated in accordance with the ISPM 15 standard for international export. This regulation does not apply to aluminium – pallets can be used immediately without additional costs or certificates.
