A 40 by 48 in. plastic pallet is said to be the first of its kind to achieve a UL 2335 listing, meeting the National Fire Protection Association's standards for industrial fire safety. The pallet weighs 56 lb, is slip-resistant, and does not absorb oils or chemicals. Durability and structural strength are sufficient for use in automated facilities and unsupported racks.
