Agecko supply bespoke pallets to clients nationwide by using CAD drawings. What is CAD software? CAD stands for computer-aided design and drafting. This software enables us to create a pallet that meets your specifications throughout the manufacturing process. Bespoke pallets will be kiln dried to cure as standard, but we also provide heat-treated pallets. The ISPM15 (International Standards for Phytosanitary Measures No. 15) regulations state that heat treat pallets are required for all wood packaging material used in international trade, food and pharmaceutical industries.
The most common types of pallets we have for sale are recycled standard pallets and recycled euro pallets. We do collect and recycle ANY wooden pallets, but we only sell Grade A pallets and Grade B pallets.
Pallets can be made up of three types;
• Brand new wooden pallets will be Grade A and manufactured using raw materials.
• Hybrid pallets may be Grade A or Grade B and manufactured using a mixture of reclaimed wood and raw material.
• Reclaimed pallets may be Grade A or Grade B and manufactured using only broken/ reclaimed wood
If you’d like to find out more about the pallets we currently have for sale, please get in touch.
Agecko have appointed manufacturers of specialist machinery/equipment nationwide, so it is no surprise we also get the best deals on consumables.
The most common baler wire finishes are galvanised and black annealed. Galvanised has a protective zinc coating applied directly after the wire has been quantified. This type of finish is the most durable and versatile, ideal for bales stored outside. Black annealed, the cheaper of the two, is heated in an oven or kiln to change the chemical composition. This process softens the wire and changes the colour of the material to a dark brown or black. This type of wire will rust if the bales are stored outside. Operators tend to request this wire because it is softer and pliable if the baling material is likely to expand after releasing the RAM pressure.
Bale banding is a great alternative to baler wire, but only if baler wire isn’t necessary due to the material/type of machine. The polystyrene material is strong, durable and shock absorbent so many operatives prefer this approach as it safer and easier to use/tie off.
