Custom Pallets
Custom pallets tailored to your logistics needs
Olympic Forest Products specializes in custom pallets, ensuring every product is tailored to enhance your logistics and supply chain efficiency. Our approach involves a detailed audit of your current pallet use, identifying issues like breakage, inefficiency, or sustainability concerns.
What Are Custom Pallets?
Custom pallets are purpose-built platforms designed to meet the unique shipping, storage, and handling needs of a specific business or product. Unlike standard pallets, such as the common 48x40 GMA design, custom pallets are tailored to match exact load requirements, transportation conditions, and warehouse systems in terms of size, structure, and material.
How Do We Design Custom Pallets
At Olympic Forest Products, custom pallets are engineered to optimize performance, reduce waste, and ensure product safety throughout the supply chain. Using industry-standard design software, we assess each customer’s needs – such as weight distribution, product fragility, and stacking method – to develop a pallet that performs efficiently while minimizing material use and cost. Our process includes testing for unique scenarios, ensuring every pallet meets your needs and our high standards.
Our Custom Pallets Audit Process
Our audit process is conducted with meticulous attention to detail, identifying and addressing the specific needs of your operation. Here’s how we do it:
Step 1: Review Current Usage
Step 2: Identify Issues (e.g., pallet breakage, inefficiency, or sustainability concerns)
Step 3: Design Consultation
Step 4: Cost-Benefit Analysis
Step 5: Environmental Impact Review
Step 6: Pallet Development Plan
Through our audit process, Olympic Forest Products ensures that your pallet solutions not only meet today’s needs but are also aligned with your future growth and environmental goals.

Industries That Rely on Custom Pallets
Custom pallets play an essential role in industries that demand precision, safety, and efficiency in their logistics operations. While standard 48x40 pallets serve many general applications, certain sectors require tailored solutions to handle unique products, weight distributions, and regulatory conditions.
Industries that rely heavily on custom pallets include:
Manufacturing & Industrial
Heavy machinery, auto parts, and metal components often exceed standard weight limits or come in irregular shapes. Custom hardwood or reinforced block pallets ensure stability and protection for these high-value items.
Agriculture & Produce
Pallets are customized to allow ventilation and proper stacking for fruits, vegetables, and plants—ensuring freshness from farm to market.
Construction &
Building Materials
Oversized or irregularly shaped products such as lumber, tiles, and insulation materials often require custom pallets or crating for stable transport and easy handling on job sites.
Food & Beverage
Companies shipping perishable goods, bottled beverages, or frozen products depend on pallets designed for sanitation and moisture resistance. Heat-treated or plastic pallets that meet FDA and ISPM-15 standards are often customized for these environments.
E-Commerce & Retail Distribution
Custom pallets designed to fit specific warehouse automation systems, conveyors, or robotic forklifts improve efficiency and reduce downtime.
Pharmaceutical & Healthcare
Sterility and compliance are paramount in this industry. Custom pallets made from plastic or heat-treated wood ensure hygienic transport for medications, lab equipment, and sensitive materials.
Chemical & Energy
For shipping drums, barrels, and hazardous materials, reinforced or metal pallets with custom containment features provide added safety and compliance.
At Olympic Forest Products, we design and manufacture custom pallets for each of these industries, ensuring every product moves safely, efficiently, and sustainably through the supply chain. Our team works closely with customers to tailor pallets that meet operational, regulatory, and environmental requirements—because no two businesses move materials exactly the same way.
