Double-face plastic pallets have two solid decks at the top and bottom of the pallet. This is different from the open and closed-deck pallets, which have an open bottom. The load carried by the pallet is also distributed to the bottom deck; this makes the pallet durable. A double-face pallet may be a reversible or non-reversible pallet:
Reversible Pallets : Have identical designs on their top and bottom decks. Products are stackable on either side of the pallet.
Non-Reversible Pallets : Have different top and bottom decks and weigh less than reversible pallets. The top deck has more plastic material to support the product when it is mounted on the pallet.
Four-way pallets allow entry on each side of the pallet. They provide more handling efficiency (e.g., less load and unloading time), especially when the floor space is small because all sides are accessible by the handling equipment. Generally, all block pallets are four-way pallets.
Open-deck plastic pallets have "ventilations" or mesh-like perforations in the top deck. The openings in the top deck allow easy drainage of wet products being carried. The openings also make the pallets lighter in weight and less expensive.
Closed-deck (or solid deck) pallets have no openings in their top deck. The top deck may have an anti-slip surface to prevent the sliding of products. Since there are no hard-to-reach areas created from the openings, closed-deck plastic pallets can be easily cleaned and are suitable for small items.
Stackable pallets have solid bottom support that gives stability to the products loaded on top of them when they are placed on top of another loaded pallet. They are commonly used in warehouses to stack goods efficiently and to save floor space.
In stringer pallets, the top deck is supported by parallel, longitudinal slabs, called stringers, that are positioned in opposite edges and across the centre of the pallet.
Two-way pallets only allow entry on two sides of the pallet, and they are opposite sides. Since the entry points are limited, the handling equipment is required to manoeuvre to a specific angle to gain access to the pallet. To be accessed by the handling equipment, these pallets must be stored at a specific orientation that exposes the entry points.
All non-modified stringer pallets are two-way pallets. Conversion of a two-way pallet into a four-way pallet involves the creation of notches; this can be easily done in wooden stringer pallets but is not feasible in plastic pallets. This conversion reduces the strength and load capacity of two-way pallets.
