Plastic Pallet Collars

Plastic pallet collars are a simple, practical, low-cost way to instantly transform a flat pallet into a strong, durable, lightweight box or crate, ideal for storing or transporting a variety of goods, while reducing transport costs and saving on storage space.

Our pallet collars are also a great example of returnable transport packaging, helping to reduce packaging and plastic waste. Fully stackable, they are built up on top of each other around the pallet contents and compatible with both 1000 x 1200mm timber or plastic pallets.

How do plastic pallet collars work?

Each collar is made from moulded virgin polypropylene, with six reinforced hinges to ensure strength, stability and durability when fitted to a pallet. The innovative snap-lock design makes clipping the collar to any pallet very quick and simple. Yet once in place, they are remarkably sturdy and secure.

Suddenly an everyday flat pallet becomes a large-capacity box pallet with sides 300mm high, perfect for storing a wide variety of goods. The hinges also ensure that plastic pallet collars simply fold down to a very space-efficient size when not in use.

Why plastic pallet collars beat wood pallets

Compared to traditional wood, our range of plastic pallet collars are lighter in weight, more attractive, more versatile, easier to keep clean and better suited to hygiene-sensitive applications.

Above all, they enable users to avoid problems with the recently updated ISPMM15 legislation. This requires all wooden packaging, pallets and pallet collars to undergo treatment to eradicate any contaminants in or on the wood, then be stamped to confirm that the wood has been treated.

All shipments from the UK to the European Union or between EU countries must now meet this standard, potentially causing supply chain delays and adding costs. Choose plastic collars and they automatically meet the new standard. Shipping can be quicker and simpler as a result.

Why buy plastic pallet collars from Palletower?

Only Palletower plastic pallet collars have a unique patented snap lock design. This makes it easy for one person to open out the pallet collars, and collapse them for space-efficient storage when not in use. Conventional wooden pallet collars are much heavier and are likely to require two people for the same operations.

Plastic pallet collars are just one aspect of our range of storage, handling and distribution solutions in steel and plastic, ranging from roll pallets to cages, stillages and boxes. Over 100 product lines in all, making us the UK leader and Europe’s most diverse stockist.
