Method of construction for a pallet

摘要

A pallet which includes a series of stackable feet orientated in relation to a platform. The platform is formed from at least two sheets of a fluted plastics material. The sheets of plastics material flutes are orientated so that the longitudinal axes of the flutes are at right angles to each other. The sheets of plastics material are joined together by any suitable means such as an adhesive or by the side edges of the sheets being welded together. The pallet can be constructed by a method including the steps of: forming in at least two sheets of fluted plastics material a series of holes orientated so that when the sheets are laid on top of each other the longitudinal axes of the flutes are at right angles to each other; placing the sheets of fluted plastics material in the desired orientation; joining the sheets of plastics material together to form a laminate platform by either fixing them together or welding the edges of the sheets together; placing in the aligned holes stackable feet members and fixing them in position. The fluted plastics sheet can be constructed from polyethylene.
