Corrugated Pallets

CX Pallets (Pty) Ltd is the market-leader in the corrugated pallet industry in South Africa. Over the years we have developed pallets of unsurpassed strength and reliability, providing clients from a diverse range of industries with an innovative and cost-effective alternative to wooden pallets and wooden crates.

The CX-Box
The CX-Box is a corrugated pallet-box combination. It ensures consolidation of loose loads and prevents theft by securing the load into one big box. In many cases wooden crates are overkill and prohibitively expensive. The CX-Box often provides sufficient protection and strength at an affordable price.
This versatile box-pallet is supplied in kit-format and consists of a pallet base, sleeve and lid; much like a traditional “Cov-pack”, except for the fully-corrugated pallet base.

Go Green
With ever-increasing pressure on companies to reduce their carbon footprint and incorporate more environment-friendly products in their supply chain, we are at the forefront of this exciting new industry. Most clients of South African exporters have trouble disposing of their wooden pallets at the receiving end. With CX Pallets, these clients can re-sell the pallets back to recyclers and eliminate the extra costs of disposing of their wooden pallets in an environmentally certified manner.

We are the Experts
Many paper manufacturers and box-making companies have experimented with cardboard pallets but most see it as an addition to their current range of products. We have the experience and expertise to answer questions about load structure, container utilisation, rackability and all matters of integration with existing materials handling practices.

Quick Answers...

Load capacity: 
No two loads are the same but generally one ton is used as a guideline. A lot depends on load structure (loose vs. unitised). Test-loaded with a static 2.7 tons, our pallets can handle even the most demanding loads. We’ve even shipped bulky 3 ton transformers on our pallets.

One client ships 800kg per CX-Box, stacked 3 high (i.e. 2.4 tons) of automotive components – by seafreight – to Germany. 

Moisture: 
What happens when it stands in water? The simple answer is: it needs to be protected from standing in static puddles of water for prolonged periods of time.

Humidity and odd splashes of rain won’t harm the pallets. If seen as an extension of your products, it won’t make a difference; you won’t let your products stand outside in the rain, so the same goes for the pallets.
