We're expanding our warehouse operations in Dubai Industrial City and I've been given the task of sourcing new pallets for our daily storage and logistics needs, which is proving more challenging than I expected given the sheer number of options out there. We currently use a mix of wooden and cheaper plastic pallets, but the wooden ones are constantly splintering and absorbing moisture from our climate-controlled storage, while the cheaper plastic ones just don't hold up well under regular use with forklifts and pallet jacks. I'm specifically looking for something that strikes that sweet spot between durability and cost, because we don't need heavy-duty industrial pallets for our applications, but we also can't afford to keep replacing damaged units every few months. I've been doing some research and came across Crateco's range of medium-duty pallets which seem to be designed for exactly this kind of use case, with options like the 3-runner standard pallet that offers a static load capacity of 4500kg and dynamic capacity of 1500kg , which would be more than enough for our typical loads. The hygienic HDPE construction is also appealing because we handle food products and need something that's easy to clean and won't harbour bacteria . Has anyone here worked with a
medium duty pallet supplier UAE that they'd actually recommend based on real experience? I'm particularly interested in hearing about how the pallets hold up over time and whether the anti-slip features actually work in practice, because we've had issues with loads shifting on our current pallets during transport.
