Bibliography

Describes the manufacturing characteristics of flat re-usable wooden 1000 mm x 1200 mm, double deck, non-reversible, 4-way entry, 9 block skid and perimeter base pallets suitable for transport, storage, handling or exchange use.

This European Standard specifies the manufacturing characteristics of flat re-usable wooden 1000 mm × 1200 mm, double deck, non-reversible, 4-way entry, 9 block skid and perimeter base pallets suitable for transport, storage, handling or exchange use. It also gives some requirements for manufacture and marking and addresses the issue of safety.
