Synopsis

This book thoroughly dissects the complexities of disposable pallet systems for shipping and handling fresh produce. The author examines issues such as cost, durability, environmental impact, and the search for a suitable alternative to traditional wooden pallets. Through rigorous testing and industry evaluation, the author explores the performance of various disposable pallets, including corrugated fiberboard, plastic foam, and wirebound wooden designs. The book also delves into the challenges of integrating disposable pallets into existing supply chains, including concerns about moisture damage and compatibility with pallet racks. Ultimately, the author concludes that while disposable pallets offer potential advantages in terms of cost and waste reduction, their widespread adoption depends on overcoming these challenges and meeting the specific needs of the produce industry.
