The plastic pallets of 760 x 1140 mm, also known as the CP5 pallet, are specifically designed for use in the chemical sector and for transportation in shipping containers. Thanks to the CP5 format, these pallets fit perfectly on the floor of a 40ft container, allowing up to 31 pallets to be transported efficiently.
The Light variant from Q-Pall offers an additional advantage: these pallets are lightweight and nestable, contributing to cost savings in storage and transport. Made from recycled plastic and fully recyclable, these pallets provide a sustainable and practical solution for international logistics.
The dimensions of 760 x 1140 mm are optimized for transport in standard 40ft containers. This size allows for the transport of 31 pallets per container, making optimal use of the available space and maximizing transport efficiency.
Thanks to the lightweight design of the Light variant, more pallets and goods can be transported without exceeding the container’s maximum load weight. This results in lower transport costs and more efficient use of available space, particularly for international shipping by sea and air.
The CP5 pallet is one of the standard pallet sizes used in the chemical industry. Q-Pall’s plastic CP5 pallets meet the strict standards required in this sector for safety, stability, and durability.
Advantages of the CP5 pallet in the chemical industry:
The CP5 pallets are ideal for transporting items such as bags and boxes.
The 760 x 1140 mm Light plastic pallets from Q-Pall are nestable, meaning they can be easily stacked inside each other when not in use. This offers significant space and cost savings in both storage and return transport.
Benefits of the nestable design:
The Q-Pall 760 x 1140 mm plastic pallets are made from recycled plastic and are fully recyclable. This contributes to the circular economy and helps businesses reduce their ecological footprint.
Unlike wooden pallets, which can splinter and absorb moisture, plastic pallets offer the following advantages:
The Light plastic pallets of 760 x 1140 mm from Q-Pall offer numerous advantages compared to traditional wooden pallets:
The CP5 plastic pallets of 760 x 1140 mm are widely used in various sectors:
The Q-Pall 760 x 1140 mm plastic pallets combine efficiency, sustainability, and safety. Thanks to the standardized CP5 format, nestable design, and lightweight construction, they are perfectly suited for container transport and the chemical industry.
By choosing Q-Pall, you invest in pallets that not only meet the strictest logistical standards but also contribute to a more sustainable business operation.
Racking Load (internationally known as Racking Load) is the maximum weight a pallet can bear when placed in a pallet racking system without decking or mesh shelves.
With this load, the pallet rests solely on the two beams of the rack (beam racking). The pallet effectively “hangs” freely in the center. This demands the utmost from the structural rigidity. Exceeding this weight leads to dangerous deflection or breakage.
The specifications we state are based on a Uniformly Distributed Load (UDL).
During our tests, we load the pallet with 25 kg bags spread over the entire surface. This simulates a realistic practical situation.
Note: In the case of point loading (a heavy weight concentrated in one spot), the load capacity may be lower than the specified racking load; this must be tested in practice.
The carbon footprint of a plastic pallet expresses the total environmental impact in kilograms of CO2 equivalent (kg CO2 eq.). To make this impact transparent for you, official Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) documents are available for all Q-Pall pallets.
Greenhouse gas emissions occur at various stages of the life cycle. The greatest impact usually arises during:
We minimize these emissions at every step of the process. By making intensive use of recycled plastics and organizing the ‘end-of-life’ process (full recycling of old pallets), we significantly lower the ecological footprint compared to wooden alternatives or virgin plastic.
