A container system for shipping product in bulk, having a corrugated container sleeve and a pallet for supporting the sleeve thereon, the pallet having a channel configured to receive therein a bottom edge of the sleeve, and the pallet with said sleeve defining an internal section of the container system in which the bulk product is contained.

An all-in-one plastic pallet is constructed as one, unitary piece of plastic material. The all-in-one plastic pallet is lightweight and is less expensive to manufacture than a typical wood pallet. The particular construction and configuration of the all-in-one plastic pallet makes the pallet nestable with other pallets of like construction, rackable for storage of the all-in-one plastic pallet in a conventional pallet storage rack, and stackable on top of products supported on a pallet of like construction without causing damage to the products.

A pallet includes a plastic top deck and a bamboo bottom deck. The bamboo bottom deck includes bamboo boards made from bamboo strips layered together. Support blocks are coupled between the bamboo bottom deck and the plastic top deck, with a gap being formed therebetween for receiving a lifting member.

A twin-sheet, thermoformed pallet is configured with a bottom-opening recess shaped to receive and hold in place a signal transmitting device. The recess has undercuts that allow the device to be snapped in and held against the floor of the recess and well above the bottom surface of the pallet body. The recess is provided with access for a tool to pry the device out for replacement or servicing.

Bins for storing and/or dispensing a material, such as preferably a flowable material. In some embodiments, the bin may comprise a body comprising an inner storage chamber configured to receive and store a flowable material therein. A forklift base may be coupled to the body and may comprise one or more pairs of forklift slots configured to receive forks of a forklift to allow the storage bin to be lifted and transported. A dispensing gate may be slidably positioned adjacent to a dispensing opening in the body to allow for positioning between a closed configuration in which the flowable material is blocked from being dispensed from the inner storage chamber and an open configuration in which the dispensing gate is moved away from the dispensing opening to allow the flowable material to exit the inner storage chamber.

A pallet cap includes a plurality of raised surfaces and a plurality of parallel channels separating the plurality of raised surfaces. The pallet cap is securable to an upper surface of a deck of a pallet. The plurality of raised surfaces may include a central raised area, and the plurality of parallel channels may include a pair of inner channels, such that the central raised area is between the pair of inner channels. The pair of inner channels and the central raised area may be between an outer ridge and an inner ridge. The inner ridge and the outer ridge may project upward higher than the pair of inner channels.

A pallet may include a base layer, an intermediate layer, two or more support blocks, and a top layer. The support blocks may be removably attached to the base layer and the intermediate layer such that the support blocks are positioned between the base layer and the intermediate layer. The base layer may include two or more base members, the intermediate layer may include two or more intermediate members and the top layer may include two top outside members, which all may be described as structural members. The structural members may include two or more ribs, may include fiber dispersed in a thermoplastic material, and may include a continuous fiber bundle within each rib.

The invention relates to a detachable pallet which comprises a plurality of slides and a plurality of cross-members, wherein the slides comprise anchoring elements, both rigid stops and flexible stops, which contribute to attaching the cross-members to the slides, all in cooperation with tongues and grooves provided in the sides of the cross-members, which are inserted into one another creating a solid, robust joint and a complete load surface. The pallet can also have a tie rod joined to the bottom of the slides, securing same and providing greater robustness to the assembly, allowing it to be used on roller lines.
