Load-bearing capacity
  The EUR-flat pallet is designed to withstand the following loads when stacked on a shelf or on
the fork of a fork-lift truck:

  • 1000 kg, (nominal load), if the load is distributed randomly across the surface of the pallet.
  • 1500 kg, if the load is evenly distributed across the surface of the pallet.
  • 2000 kg, if the load is compact and evenly distributed across the whole surface of the pallet.
When stacked, the lower pallet must withstand a maximum additional load of 4 000 kg, if it is resting on a flat,
horizontal and rigid surface and if the load is exerted horizontally and across the whole surface of the pallet.
