Key takeaways
  • Rising timber and energy prices, together with the difficulty of recovering pallets in many countries, is driving demand for pallet-free palletising.
  • The package can be designed for forklift loading (with side or internal cavities) or for gripper loading (with no cavities).
  • Rometa adapts the solution both for new lines and for modifications to lines already in operation.

More and more companies and clients are asking us for technical proposals for palletizing without a pallet, due to the rising price of wood and energy and the difficulty of recovering pallets for reuse in many countries. Rometa offers different solutions depending on the country and the client's needs, both for new lines and for modifications to lines already in operation.

How is a pallet-free package designed?

The package can be designed for loading with a fork or with a clamp:

  • Fork loading: cavities are left for the fork to enter, on the sides of the package or on the inside.
  • Clamp loading: no cavities are needed.

In both cases, vertical strapping will be required or advisable depending on the case.
