48″ x 42″ Export Ready Molded Wood Pallets

48” x 42” pallets are typically used within the automotive parts manufacturing process. The Inca molded wood 48″ x 42″ pallet can be used multiple times, yielding a lower cost per trip, yet at a price as low as $11.90 each, is inexpensive enough to treat as a one-way pallet.

Inca pallets are export ready and not regulated by ISPM-15 because they considered “processed wood” thus free of insect pests. These pallets are easy for employees to handle and easily reused, disposed of or recycled.

A Lightweight, Strong and Durable Solution

Weighing just 35 lbs., our 1,500-lb. dynamic load capacity (medium-duty) 48″ x 42″ pallet maintains superior structural integrity under load as compared to conventional style, nailed wooden pallets and even more expensive plastic pallets. Unloaded individual pallet weights for all 3 duty ratings are shown below:

  • Medium Duty – 35 lbs. (+/- 1.5)
  • Heavy Duty – 39 lbs. (+/- 1.5)
  • Extra Heavy Duty – 41 lbs. (+/- 1.5)

Inca pallets are molded under high heat and pressure from reclaimed chipped wood fiber and resin, making them water and mold resistant. Durable enough to be reused and inexpensive enough to be expendable make these ideal for return and reuse programs or in situations where pallet loss is difficult to manage.

Space-Saving, Nested Storage Design

A stack of fifty 48″ x 42″ molded wood pallets stands approximately 7′ high. This space saving ratio of 4:1 (when compared to conventional nailed wooden pallets) can provide you significant savings in handling and storage costs both in your warehouse and in shipping product. NOTE: for each additional pallet, add ~2″ to height of stack.

Safe and Practical Protection

Because Inca pallets weigh up to 60% less than conventional hardwood pallets, they are safer and easier to handle. Package and product damage due to tears and punctures contribute significantly to waste. Molded wood pallets have all rounded corners and tapered legs which make them ideal for stretch or shrink wrapping. And, there are no nails or splinters to damage your products. Most importantly, the rounded design helps to minimize employee and customer injuries during handling.

Export Ready Pallet – Passes ISPM 15

Molded wood pallets can be imported into any country. The high heat manufacturing process eliminates the need for any additional treatments against any insects or larva. Our pallets are not regulated by IPPC-ISPM 15 because they are considered “processed wood.”

Environmentally Responsible

The Inca process turns damaged logs, wood waste and other wood by-products into brand-new, wood pallets using a high heat and pressure molding process. Molded wooden pallets are Cradle to Cradle CertifiedTM Sustainable by MBDC, which verifies the use of healthy materials and eco intelligent design.
