CP pallet sizes and specifications

There are nine different CP pallet sizes. The type you choose will depend on factors, including the load you’re transporting and your stacking requirements. PalletOne cuts to the millimeter to meet metric/global standards. Below are standard American measurements (inches) and conversion to metrics. However, it is common in the pallet industry when discussing American measurements that those measurements are rounded up to the nearest whole number. For example, a CP1 pallet is commonly called a 48”x40” pallet). The pallet dimensions and specifications are:

Which industries use chemical pallets?

Chemical Pallets (CP) are used in the plastic and chemical production industries and come in a variety of pallet sizes. They are robust containers, which are used to transport and distribute industrial materials and substances.  Chemical pallets are specially formulated to store toxic and caustic chemicals and materials.

They are used most commonly in the plastic, petroleum, and chemical production industries, providing safe methods of transporting, storing, and distributing chemicals. As the substances transported in chemical pallets are hugely versatile, these pallets can be used by a diverse range of businesses, manufacturers, and organizations, which operate within the chemical sector.

With nine different types available, it is likely that there will be an ideal solution for any business or organization looking to ship or transport materials either domestically or internationally. The most commonly used chemical pallets in the US are CP1, CP3, CP7, and CP9. If you are shipping to a different country, stacking is hugely beneficial, so it’s wise to explore chemical pallets that are easy to load, manage and organize.

Chemical pallets that are manufactured according to ISPM 15 specifications meet IPPC (International Plant Protection Convention) regulations, which means that these pallets have been heat treated or prepared to ensure that no plant or animal species can be transported alongside the pallet.
