· They are mostly made from recycled fiber content.
· Like cardboard boxes, paper pallets and are easily 100 percent recyclable.

The secret to the strength of a corrugated pallet is the engineering design. These pallets are made from corrugated paper. Corrugated paper is very thick paper board that is commonly used for packaging materials. The paper is grooved and ridged alternatively to create layers of strong paper material. Just like wooden pallets, corrugated paper pallets are stronger on one axis than the other.
Each layer complements the other layers and strengthens them by using tension.
