Pallets and crates are foundational logistics products that underpin every warehouse, distribution centre and manufacturing facility in the UAE and Saudi Arabia. This category covers wooden pallets (the most common and economical), plastic pallets (hygienic, reusable, no ISPM-15 fumigation required), steel and aluminium pallets (for heavy loads and automated systems), and composite pallets, as well as wooden and plywood crates for protecting machinery and equipment during domestic transport and international shipping.

Standard pallet sizes in GCC logistics include 1200 x 1000 mm (the regional and European standard) and 1200 x 800 mm (Euro pallet), though 48 x 40 inch pallets are also encountered in trade with North America. For export, wooden pallets and crates must comply with ISPM-15 (International Standards for Phytosanitary Measures No. 15), requiring heat treatment and stamping to prevent pest transmission — a critical requirement for GCC exporters.

Procurement managers should evaluate pallet suppliers on material type, static and dynamic load capacity, racking compatibility (entry points, deck configuration), compliance with ISPM-15 where applicable, and cost per trip for single-use versus reusable pallet economics. For plastic pallets, assess hygienic design (cleanable, nestable or stackable), RFID integration for tracking and material composition (virgin HDPE or recycled). For crates, evaluate bespoke design capability for fragile machinery, vapour-barrier lining for corrosion-sensitive goods, and on-site packing services. Major suppliers operate in JAFZA, DIP, Sharjah, Riyadh Industrial City and Dammam Second Industrial City.

Frequently Asked Questions — Pallets & Crates

When should I choose plastic pallets over wooden pallets?

Plastic pallets are preferred in food and pharmaceutical logistics where hygiene and washability are essential, in closed-loop supply chains where the pallet is reused many times, for export markets that prohibit or restrict wooden packaging, and in automated warehouses where consistent dimensions are critical. They cost more upfront but offer lower cost-per-trip in reusable applications.

What is ISPM-15 and does it apply to GCC exports?

ISPM-15 is an international phytosanitary regulation that requires solid wood packaging used in international trade to be heat-treated or fumigated and stamped to prevent the spread of invasive pests. It applies to all GCC exports using wooden pallets, crates or dunnage. Plywood and engineered wood products are exempt.

What pallet size is standard in the UAE and Saudi Arabia?

The 1200 x 1000 mm pallet is the most common in GCC logistics, compatible with standard 20-foot and 40-foot shipping containers and regional warehouse racking. The 1200 x 800 mm Euro pallet is also used, particularly in European trade lanes. Custom sizes are available for oversize machinery and non-standard loads.
