Aluminum and Steel Pallets

Heavy-Duty Aluminum and Steel Pallets for Industrial Facilities

Heavy-duty aluminum and steel pallets are built to handle demanding industrial applications where strength, durability, and reliable load support are essential. These pallets are ideal for warehouses, manufacturing plants, distribution centers, and material handling operations that need a long-lasting alternative to wood or plastic pallets. Built for tough environments, metal pallets support heavy loads, withstand repeated use, and deliver more consistent performance where pallet reliability matters.

Aluminum pallets offer a lighter-weight option with excellent corrosion resistance, making them useful in environments where cleanliness and durability are important. Steel pallets provide exceptional strength for heavier loads and harsher conditions where impact resistance and structural integrity are critical. Both options help reduce the problems associated with damaged or worn traditional pallets, especially in high-volume operations.

Their durable construction reduces the frequency of pallet replacements, improves load stability, and supports safer movement of products and materials. In industrial settings where equipment, inventory, or products are heavy or sensitive, metal pallets can help create a more consistent and efficient workflow, supporting better durability, cleaner handling, and stronger long-term value.


Models and Specifications:

♦ New Age Aluminum Channel Pallets, 30,000 lb capacity.
♦ New Age Industrial Aluminum Tube Frame Pallet, 30,000 lb capacity.
♦ Vestil Aluminum Pallets, 6,000 lb capacity.
♦ Vestil Hot-Dipped Galvanized Steel Pallets.
♦ Vestil Solid Deck Steel Pallet.


Selecting the Right Model:

♦ Material: choose Aluminum for a lighter-weight option with excellent corrosion resistance, or Steel for heavier loads and harsher conditions.
♦ Capacity: choose New Age Aluminum Channel or Tube Frame Pallets for the highest capacity at 30,000 lb, or Vestil Aluminum for lighter-duty use at 6,000 lb.
♦ Deck style: choose a Solid Deck steel pallet for spill containment, or an open deck for lighter weight and drainage.


Where Commonly Used:

♦ Warehouses and Distribution Centers: Metal pallets withstand repeated use better than wood or plastic.
♦ Manufacturing Plants: Heavy-duty capacity supports demanding daily material handling.
♦ High-Volume Operations: Durable construction reduces pallet replacement frequency.
♦ Cleanliness-Sensitive Environments: aluminum's corrosion resistance suits sanitation-focused facilities.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is the difference between aluminum and steel pallets?
Both are metal pallets built to outlast wood and plastic, but they solve different problems. Aluminum is lighter and corrosion resistant, which suits environments where cleanliness matters and where operators handle pallets frequently. Steel provides the higher strength and impact resistance for heavier loads and harsher conditions. CustomMHS carries aluminum and steel pallets from New Age Industrial and Vestil, backed by each manufacturer's warranty.
What capacities are available?
New Age Industrial aluminum channel pallets and aluminum tube frame pallets both handle 30,000 pounds, which covers demanding industrial loads. Vestil aluminum pallets are rated at 6,000 pounds for lighter applications. Vestil also offers hot-dipped galvanized steel pallets and a solid deck steel pallet. Match the rating to the heaviest load a pallet will carry rather than the typical one, since occasional heavy loads are what expose an undersized pallet.
When is a metal pallet worth the cost over wood?
Cycle count is the deciding factor. A wood pallet is inexpensive per unit but splinters, breaks, and gets replaced, and the labor to remove damaged pallets from circulation adds to that. In high-volume operations where pallets cycle continuously, metal pallets stay in service far longer and the cost per trip drops well below wood. For one-way shipping where the pallet does not come back, wood usually remains the economical choice.
Why choose a solid deck over an open deck pallet?
A solid deck supports the full underside of a load rather than only the areas above the deck boards, which matters for smaller items, bags, or containers that would sag or fall through gaps. Solid decks also wipe clean rather than trapping debris in the openings, which is why they appear in sanitation-sensitive areas. Open deck pallets weigh less and cost less, and they handle standard palletized cases without issue.
How do metal pallets help your facility?
Durability is the direct gain, since fewer pallet failures means fewer replacements, less time spent pulling broken pallets out of racking and trailers, and fewer loads at risk from a deck giving way mid-move. Consistent construction also improves load stability, because a metal pallet does not warp or lose boards the way a used wood pallet does, and a stable load is safer on a forklift and in a rack bay. In clean and washdown environments, aluminum and galvanized steel resist the corrosion that would take a standard pallet out of service, and they do not absorb moisture or harbor contaminants the way wood does.
