An equal-fork pallet comprising a pallet body is provided. The pallet body is provided with a stand structure and a reinforcing structure, the reinforcing structure is a reinforcing rib embodied by a groove structure pressed on the surface of the pallet body, and the reinforcing rib comprises a connection type reinforcing rib and a semi-partition type reinforcing rib, the stand structure comprises a corner stand, an edge stand and a center stand, and neither end of the partition type reinforcing rib is connected to the stand. The equal-fork pallet has a reasonable structural design and strong pressure bearing capacity, with targeted layout and design of the reinforcing rib centralized position and stress concentration position such as stand. The pallet can overcome the problems of low local compressive strength and proneness to produce stress fracture and local cracking.

Disclosed herein are reinforced laminated wooden boards suitable for use in pallets and other constructions, as well as methods for making them. A board disclosed herein includes a wood-based core comprising a front surface, a top surface, a rear surface, and a bottom surface; and a reinforcing material adhered to at least a portion of at least one of the front surface, the top surface, the rear surface, and the bottom surface with a binder composition. Pallets disclosed herein include one or more such boards.

Exemplary embodiments of a multi-layer composite pulp product comprise one or more pulp layers, and one or more reinforcement layers disposed therebetween. Each of these layers preferably include a respective pattern of opposingly-defined cavities and protrusions, wherein the mutual disposition of the layers results in their patterns axially aligning with one another. The reinforcement layers may be comprised of a recycled plastic, a metallic mesh or a metallic sheet. One example process for manufacturing a multi-layer composite pulp product may comprise fabricating a reinforcement layer, forming a soggy first pulp layer, placing a reinforcement layer on the soggy first pulp layer, forming a soggy second pulp layer, and positioning the soggy second pulp layer on the reinforcement layer. A precursor wet composite may thereby be formed, and may be dried at a selected heating temperature and under a selected pressure.
