The vast majority of goods loaded into the shipping container for pallets.
When using pallets we recommend to pay attention to the following:
There are two main types of pallets: "europallet" and standard pallets.
Size "pallets» 800mm x 1,200mm, and standard pallets 1,000mm x 1,200mm.
In the 20-foot dry cargo container can be loaded with 11 "pallets" or
9-10 standard pallets in one tier (see. Fig.).
In the 40-foot dry cargo container can be loaded with 23 - 24 "pallets" or
20-21 standard pallets in one tier (see. Fig.).
Wooden pallets must be strong enough to support the weight of three tiers.
Cardboard boxes should not extend beyond the pallet.
