Foire aux questions
What are protective plastic layer pads used for?
Protective plastic layer pads are secondary packaging sheets placed between product layers on pallets. They protect glass bottles, PET containers, and metal cans from scratches, abrasion, and contamination during stacking, storage, and transportation. They are widely used in beverage bottling lines, food processing facilities, and automated packaging systems.
What is the difference between corrugated and solid protective layer pads?

Are protective plastic layer pads compatible with sweep depalletization?
Yes. PPBOXY protective layer pads are specifically engineered for sweep depalletization (also called push-off or bar depalletization) systems used in high-speed beverage bottling lines. The pads maintain dimensional stability under lateral sweep forces and provide consistent friction characteristics that prevent bottle slippage during automated unstacking. Available in both corrugated and solid versions depending on your depalletizer requirements.
What sizes are available for protective layer pads?
PPBOXY offers standard sizes for common pallets: 1000 × 1000 mm , 1100 × 1100 mm , et 1200 × 1000 mm . Custom sizes are available to match specific container configurations, crate dimensions, or pallet formats. Edge options include fully sealed edges (for hygiene) and beveled edges (for easier automated feeding). Contact PPBOXY with your pallet and container specifications for a tailored solution.
Are these layer pads food-safe?
Yes. All PPBOXY protective layer pads are manufactured from virgin polypropylene resin complying with FDA 21 CFR 177.1520 (USA) and EU Regulation EC 1935/2004 for food-contact materials. They contain no BPA, no phthalates, and no heavy metals. Material safety data sheets (MSDS) and food-contact compliance certificates are available upon request for every production batch.
