Cardboard Corrugated Slip Sheets

Corrugated sheets have evolved and significantly transformed how goods are transported in the U.S. and worldwide. Present-day pallet sheets are durable, environmentally friendly, versatile and a cost-effective commercial shipping option.

What Are Cardboard Corrugated Slip Sheets?

Corrugated cardboard slip sheets, sometimes called pallet sheets or paper pallets, are thin, durable sheets made from corrugated cardboard, paper or plastic. They fulfill a similar function to traditional wood pallets in material handling and product transport.

Slip sheets are the same size as pallets, but they significantly reduce material handling costs because they are lighter than wood pallets. The unit loads are often stretch wrapped for stability.

What Is the Difference Between Cardboard Slip Sheets and Pallets?

Traditional pallets are a rigid, flat transport structure that stabilizes goods while being forklifted and moved. Pallets allow commercial materials to be shipped stably and support the unit load in transit.

Corrugated slip sheets are similar to wooden pallets in that they assist in transporting goods. When considering which is more efficient to use, slip sheets are on top:

• Added container space: Slip sheets offer up to 15% more storage space for products in material handling containers.
• Low maintenance: Pallet sheets require almost no maintenance. They are also cost-effective and easy to replace. 
• Reduced costs: The reinforced sheets significantly reduce handling costs.
• Saves time: The innovative design makes loading and unloading up to 60% more efficient. Plus, it eliminates pallet exchange.
• Lighter loads: Wooden pallets are much weightier. Switching to slip sheets can lessen your shipping load by 20 times. 
• Customizable: Neway Packaging customizes your corrugated sheet to fit any size load.
• Recyclable: Most slip sheets are environmentally friendly and recyclable. 

Corrugated slip sheets require special attachments to be used with forklifts and transport devices, which is one consideration to keep in mind.

Benefits of Using Corrugated Pallet Sheets

Pallet sheets have undergone much refinement and design innovation to improve historical shortcomings, making them durable, moisture-resistant and effective in transporting sensitive materials.

The slip sheets are made in various ways, using different blends of corrugated top and bottom decks, internal support cells, corrugated runners and vertical flutes. The designs also differ according to your needs and the scale of work. The constant innovation and engineering mean corrugated sheets have many benefits.

1. Lightweight Design

Depending on the design, corrugated sheets weigh a third of wood pallets. The lighter, more compact design saves fuel and freight costs and allows more sheets to fit into containers. Lighter loads also mean fewer carbon emissions and greener operations. 

2. Durable Construction

Pallet sheets are light but hardy. The corrugated design makes them more robust than straight-up cardboard. The slip sheets are built with corrugated solid cores, runners and top sheets that combine to create a sturdy, durable and reliable transport solution. 

3. Simple Exportation

Unlike corrugated sheets, wood pallets often have strict export regulations, requiring fumigation and additional maintenance. The extra care is costly and time-consuming, impacting your bottom line. 

4. Hygienic Packing Solution

A great benefit of corrugated sheets is that they are well-suited for hygienic environments in dry food, medical and pharmaceutical applications. They require zero treatment and care to prevent mold, infestations or fungi that could contaminate goods. The latest innovative cardboard pallets are moisture-resistant, heavy-duty and heat-resistant.

5. High Customization 

Reputable manufacturers like Neway Packaging provide corrugated sheets to fit your needs and unit loads. You decide what material and custom dimensions you need, and we deliver them. This customization allows for consistent tare weight, or the total weight of an empty container, which benefits companies selling their products by tons or pounds.

Neway Packaging offers expert support and the ability to die-cut top sheets. In addition, you can custom-print the sheets to enhance branding and add radio frequency identification (RFID) to improve tracking.

6. Environmentally Friendly

Corrugated sheets are mostly made from 100% recycled materials, and with no staples or nails, they can be recycled with your other cardboard boxes. 

7. Safe Solution

Slip sheets don’t splinter, break off or use nails or staples, and they are lightweight and hygienic — all of which means greater safety for your staff and goods. Corrugated pallets require greater attention when you are handling materials, which allows reduced damage to your products and equipment.
