With plastic pallet collars, you transform a standard pallet into a secure transport box. These add-on collars are the ultimate solution to prevent goods from being damaged, shifting, or falling over during transport. Through the modular design, you create flexible crating that seamlessly matches your logistics needs, whether you choose new units or sustainable used options.

1. Efficiency and Space Saving

The greatest advantage of plastic collars is logistical flexibility. Each collar has a standard height of 20 centimeters. You simply stack them on top of each other (for example, on a block pallet or Euro pallet) until the desired box height is reached. Is the return freight empty?

  • Volume reduction: The collars are fully foldable, resulting in savings of up to 80% on your warehouse and transport space.
  • Stackability: Whether assembled or folded, the collars can be stacked safely and stably.

2. Why plastic over wood?

Q-Pall’s pallet collars are manufactured from 100% recycled plastic. This offers significant advantages over traditional wooden collars:

  • Hygiene: Plastic does not absorb moisture, does not splinter, and is easy to clean.
  • Lifespan: The quality remains constant, even with intensive reuse, resulting in a lower Total Cost of Ownership.
  • Sustainability: By choosing our recycled variants, you contribute directly to a circular economy.

3. Assortment and Dimensions

Our plastic collars are designed to fit perfectly on common pallet sizes. In addition to the collars, we also offer matching accessories such as pallet lids and dividers for extra protection. The most common sizes in our range are:

  • 800 x 600 mm (Half pallet size)
  • 1200 x 800 mm (Euro pallet size)
  • 1200 x 1000 mm (Block pallet size)
  • 1000 x 1200 mm & 1200 x 1200 mm

Is your desired size not listed? In many cases, we can offer a suitable solution. View our catalogue for all specifications and weights.

4. Buying new or used pallet collars

At Q-Pall, you will always find a solution that fits your budget and quality requirements. We deliver directly from stock and offer short delivery times. Do you need advice on the right configuration for your supply chain, or would you like to request a quote directly?

a symbol of sustainability in the broadest sense of the word

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

What are plastic pallets made of?

Our plastic pallets are manufactured from high-quality polymers, specifically a mix of Polypropylene (PP) and Polyethylene (HDPE). As a standard, we utilize recycled materials (such as PE-HD #2), unless safety requirements dictate otherwise.

1. Material choice & application

The exact composition depends on the intended use:

  • Standard & pool pallets: Made from recycled material for maximum sustainability and durability.
  • Food safety (HACCP): For direct contact with food, we use no recycled material, but exclusively virgin PP or HDPE.

2. Recycling & circularity

Because our pallets consist of 100% plastic, they are fully recyclable at the end of their service life. This supports a circular process: your old pallet becomes the raw material for a new Q-Pall pallet.

Plastic is naturally an insulator, meaning friction can cause a static charge to build up. While this is less dangerous than an ESD discharge, it is highly undesirable for many logistics processes.

1. What are the disadvantages of static charge?

A statically charged pallet acts like a magnet for dirt. This creates two primary problems in the supply chain:

  • Hygiene & quality (dust): The charge attracts dust and dirt from the environment. This can affect the quality of the packaging or the product, which is unacceptable, especially in ‘clean’ environments.
  • Shocks & electronics: Employees may experience unpleasant shocks upon contact, and sensitive electronics can be disrupted.

2. The solution: Antistatic additives

To prevent this, Q-Pall can optionally provide your pallets with synergistic antistatic additives.

These additives are mixed into the plastic during production and ensure that the surface resistance is lowered. As a result, static charge cannot build up, keeping the pallet clean (dust-repellent) and safe to use.

Do you experience dust accumulation or static issues in your warehouse? Contact us to discuss the possibilities for antistatic additives.

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.

1. What does this emission consist of?

Greenhouse gas emissions occur at various stages of the life cycle. The greatest impact usually arises during:

  • Raw material extraction: Obtaining the base material.
  • Production: Energy consumption during the injection molding of the pallets.
  • Transport: Logistics from raw material to factory and from factory to customer.

2. How Q-Pall reduces CO2

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.

When selecting a plastic pallet, the choice of the top deck is decisive for functionality. You can choose between an open structure (gridded) for weight savings or a closed deck for hygiene and load capacity.

1. Open top deck

A pallet with an open structure contains holes or grids in the deck.

  • Advantage: Less material usage makes the pallet lighter and often more cost-efficient.
  • Application: Ideal for export, general logistics, and situations where every kilogram counts.

2. Closed top deck

These pallets have a completely solid surface, often with a smooth finish.

  • Advantage: Higher load capacity and superior hygiene. The solid deck prevents dirt or liquids from seeping through to goods underneath.
  • Application: Essential for the meat processing industry, pharmaceuticals, and environments with strict hygiene requirements (HACCP).

Are you unsure which type of deck best fits your logistics process? Contact us to review the specifications for your application.

 

Yes, it is possible to fully customize your plastic pallets with your company logo or in your own corporate color. This not only increases brand recognition but also acts as a preventive measure against theft and loss in the supply chain.

1. Applying logo and text

To place your logo or ownership mark, we use various techniques, depending on the desired look and durability:

  • Hot stamping: The logo is pressed into the plastic using heat (highly wear-resistant).
  • Screen printing: For detailed, colored logos.
  • In-mould: The logo is processed directly into the mold during the casting process (permanent relief marking).

2. Pallets in color (RAL)

We can produce pallets in almost any desired color. However, the choice of material is decisive here:

  • Virgin material: Any specific corporate color is possible.
  • Recycled material: Due to the dark base color of the recyclate, light or specific colors are often limited (usually black or anthracite).

Do you want to know the costs for personalizing your batch? Contact us to discuss your wishes and the technical possibilities.

The price of a plastic pallet is not a fixed figure, but a sum of specifications. Although the initial purchase price is often higher than wood, the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) is frequently lower due to the long lifespan.

1. The 4 price-determining factors

The final cost price per pallet is determined by:

  • Material: Virgin material (new) is more expensive than recycled plastic.
  • Weight & type: A heavy-duty pallet contains more raw material (and is therefore more expensive) than a lightweight export pallet.
  • Volume: For larger purchases (full truckloads), the price per unit drops significantly.
  • Logistics: Transport costs weigh heavily on the final price.

2. The Q-Pall location advantage

Transport is a major cost item and an environmental burden. Q-Pall minimizes this by producing at multiple locations in Europe. We deliver from the factory closest to your delivery address. This results in lower transport costs and significantly reduced CO2 emissions.
