Problems solved by technology

However, keep the use of such pallets to a minimum, as pallets made of plastic and metal are more expensive
In addition to being more costly, plastic and metal pallets have disposal issues, as plastic and metal do not biodegrade and therefore cannot be disposed of effectively
Also, the recycled plastic used in the manufacture of plastic pallets is harmful to the environment as its decomposition releases toxic gases into the atmosphere causing land and water pollution

Embodiment Construction

[0045]The invention provides a biodegradable tray and a manufacturing method thereof. In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention. It will be understood, however, to one skilled in the art, that the present invention may be practiced without some or all of these specific details. In other instances, well known process operations have not been described in detail in order to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the understanding.

[0046] Figure 1 shows a perspective view of a biodegradable tray 10 according to one embodiment of the present invention. The tray 10 includes a tray body 12 that is reinforced when coupled to an attachable mat 14 by an interlock 16 . The padding 14 enhances the rigidity and stability of the pallet 10 and enables the pallet 10 to meet specifications dictated by material handling applications using different types of conveying systems, such as forklifts, motoriz...

Abstract

A pallet and a method for manufacturing the same are provided. The pallet comprises a pallet body, a skid to reinforce the pallet body and means to interlock the pallet body and the skid. The pallet body and the skid are moulded from a mouldable composition comprising between about 40 to 60 wt % of a fibre mixture and between about 15 to 45 wt % of an adhesive. The method for manufacturing the pallet begins by preparing the mouldable composition. A mould cavity is loaded with the mouldable composition up to about 90 % of the capacity of the mould cavity before applying a packing pressure of between about 435 to 870 psi to the mouldable composition. A predetermined clearance of between about 0.1 to 0.5 mm is maintained between a first mould part defining the mould cavity and a second mould part. A moulded product is removed from the mould cavity when the mouldable composition is substantially cured.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to a pallet for handling, storing or moving materials and packages. Background technique [0002] Pallets are widely used as a unit load for installing, storing, stacking, handling and transporting goods, and are mainly composed of wood, metal or plastic. [0003] Wooden pallets are the most commonly used. However, in recent years, due to deforestation incidents and environmental concerns caused by landfill waste wood and the import and export of wood-puncturing parasites between countries and continents, wooden pallets have been increasingly sought after by environmentalists and various government agencies. focus on. Therefore, many countries have imposed a large number of restrictions on the use of solid wood packaging materials, such as ISPM 15 (National Standard 15 for Phytosanitary Measurements) according to WHO (World Health Organization). [0004] Currently, pallets made of plastic and metal are used in...
