A high strength ribbed panel assembly formed of laminated plastic impregnated fibrous sheet stock to form a flat panel member; the panel member including a surface lamination which is provided with sets of multiple laminations integral with the surface lamination and extending laterally therefrom to form a series of spaced reinforcing ribs; a pair of the panel assemblies may be so proportioned as to be joined with their ribs in overlapping, mutually bonded relation to form a pallet suitable for shipping and storage. The method of manufacturing involves the steps of forming the ribs by progressively folding selected portions of a plastic impregnated fibrous sheet into mutual contact to form a plurality of multi-laminated ribs, applying additional laminations over the plastic sheet to form a panel assembly, then joining a pair of assemblies with their respective ribs bonded together. The means of manufacture involves means for carrying out the method.
