Can the wooden pallet be reused?

By -
Two BILLION pallets are used for transporting products every day. Many more pallets are lying around. It is no surprise that so many projects are made with pallets! At ThoYu Pallets, we have over four thousand ways to recycle, upcycle, reuse, or repurpose wooden pallets! But are those pallets safe to use? Many of you have questions about pallet’s safety and wonder if the pallets they found are Safe to use or not.

We tried to summarize the information we found. Pallets can become contaminated with chemicals spilled on them during the shipping process. If there are any spills on it, either oil, food or unknown substances, do not use this pallet! Pallets are frequently used to transport dangerous or toxic chemicals/liquids. It is much safer to use only clean ones and not try to identify what might be on your pallet.

Once you have found a clean pallet, the next step is to check for a stamp or marking on the sides of the pallet. Here is what we can tell you about those stamps:

When there is no stamp or mark on the pallet? Is it still Safe?
It means that it is a “national pallet“. National pallets are used for domestic transport within your country! Most domestic pallets are not treated with chemicals, so they should be safe. But you still have to be careful. Many crafters use these pallets safely, but it is better if you can trace from where they came. Sometimes you have to think about where you got them. Below is an example of a heavy-duty, oversized pallet used for shipping a new motorcycle. Check in with your local motorcycle dealerships as they commonly have “come and get them” days to dispose of the stack of crates and pallets. They are all brand-new lumber!



There are Safe local sources of new pallets!
Single-use pallets, such as for transporting a new motorcycle or new science lab equipment or other industrial equipment are frequently devoid of any stamps whatsoever. However, no one would want to pay 30,000 or more for a new motorcycle and have it sitting on a dirty pallet. The same applies to colleges or other facilities receiving new equipment. If you can find sources such as these, grab those pallets and get crafting! This information is provided by one of your administrators who watched her motorcycle being un-crated – and took the pallet/crate along with the bike. :)
In summary, you will find that traditional wooden pallets are very troublesome. Now I want to introduce you to a fumigation-free, recyclable molded pallets.

The advantages of molded pallet
1. High load capacity with stiffener
2. One-piece Design, Security Assurance
3. High Density, Durable and strong
4. Free Fumigation, ready for export
5. One time forming, stable structure

Waste wood is a common material in China. In recent years, with the accelerated development of China's cities, the real estate and home improvement industry has flourished, and a large number of renovation surpluses have appeared. According to estimates by experts, the city's cities produce about 90 million tons of waste wood every year, including old furniture, waste wood from old houses, disposable wood products, construction waste wood, old dead wood and other urban waste wood. Therefore, the recycling of waste wood is imperative. According to statistics, at present, the comprehensive utilization rate of wood in China is only 65%, while that in developed countries is generally above 80%. If it can increase by one percentage point, China will save 750,000 cubic meters of wood every year. However, the phenomenon of wood waste in our country is quite amazing. Not only is the utilization rate of wood low, but also the recycling and recycling rate is low. Although some wast
