Safety is another
concern for anyone who comes in contact with wooden pallets. On a daily
basis, warehouse workers are injured handling heavy pallets by hand, retail
shoppers are jabbed by rogue nails or splinters when pallets are used
for displays on superstore floors, and drivers end up in accidents when
slick pallets slide off trucks into traffic. Corporate America spends
millions of dollars each year to settle claims related to wood pallet
usage.
Sometimes, the safety
issues aren't as obvious. There are known cases when disinfectants or
other substances used to treat wooden pallets leeched into food and beverage
products being carried on the pallets, causing consumers to become ill.
In France, a soft drink company had to recall products because a disinfectant
sprayed onto the pallets contaminated the soft drink cans.

Pallets stack like wooden pallets and can be used with forklifts.
