AI Technical Summary
Problems solved by technology
Such wooden shipping pallets are relatively costly even though made of relatively poor quality wood.
The hasty assembly and poor wood quality result in shipping pallets that may rapidly become damaged to the point of being unusable.
Moreover, such shipping pallets are relatively heavy, resulting in additional shipping costs to the shipper due to weight and volume of the pallets.
Damaged and otherwise unusable shipping pallets may present a disposal problem.
However, structural members fabricated from fiberboard sheets have been deficient in areas of strength, durability, and are prone to warping so that shipping pallets fabricated from such structural members may be deficient in performance.

This invention relates to shipping pallets 10 that may be constructed, at least in part, from structural members 100 that are largely fabricated from paper and paper based materials. One or more of the structural members 100 may include a wrapper 60 secured in tension to a core 20. The core 20 may include one or more laminated fiberboard sheets 40. Because of the use of paper and paper based materials, the one or more aspects of shipping pallets 10 in accordance with the present inventions may be recycled.
