In the material handling industry, pallets are a part of everyday life. When pallets become too damaged for further use in your warehouse, they must be recycled or sent to a landfill. Pallets can be reprocessed and made into other pallets or used for a variety of other applications. Pallets made out of recycled materials are often available at a lower price than new pallets of the same type and can also be of the same quality as new pallets if recycled properly making them a smart option for any material handling application.
