Palletization

Palletization involves systematically arranging and securing merchandise onto a flat structure, known as a pallet, that is normally made of wood, but also available in plastic, metal, or composite materials. This makes it easier to handle, store, and transport them by forklifts.

Palletizations are vital in mitigating the likelihood of harm to goods while in transit. Typically, cargo is methodically stacked on pallets and fastened using straps or wraps to ensure stability and stackability.
