What Are Plastic Drum Pallets?
In many industrial applications, the 55-gallon drum will contain chemicals, liquids or other materials that could pose a significant hazard if spillage occurs during storage or transport. The plastic drum pallet features recessed rings built into the platform that contour to the size and shape of the 55-gallon drum. They also have a unique cross design on the underside of the grating that provides additional support for the drum. What's more, the plastic material offers excellent resistance to harmful chemicals and rust, which makes it easy to clean and ensures a long lifespan in even the most challenging work environments.
Cherry's Industrial Equipment offers several types of 48" x 48" drum pallets that can accommodate up to four 55-gallon drums. These pallets offer a static load capacity of up to 30,000 lbs. and a dynamic load capacity of 4,000 lbs. Our offerings include USDA-approved options that meet the needs of the food industry. All pallets are made in the USA and meet the highest quality standards.
Key Drum Pallet Benefits
Because plastic drum pallets help prevent spills, they also reduce the likelihood of product loss during storage, handling and shipping. This will lower the costs associated with product and equipment damage and result in higher customer satisfaction levels. You can also recycle plastic pallets when the time finally arrives to take them out of service — companies that purchase plastic for recycling often pay top-dollar for the material.
If you operate a company in a heavily regulated environment, plastic drum pallets can help you achieve your compliance objectives. Plastic pallets tend to last much longer than wood pallets, which will help you save money on material handling equipment over time. There are also no concerns about nails, splinters or sharp edges that could injure your employees during handling.
Plastic Drum Pallet Applications
Our drum pallets can serve the material handling needs of companies in a wide variety of industries. A primary application is for storing and shipping liquid chemicals or petroleum products. If you are a pharmaceuticals manufacturer or distributor that often handles products stored in 55-gallon drums, you can also benefit from using our pallets. The petroleum industry can use them for materials such as diesel fuel or propane. The agriculture industry can use our USDA-approved pallets to meet their stringent compliance requirements.
