According to the article, the plastic pallet has come to have significant strategic value aside from its excellent ROI. “The real value of JECO’s service, however, is that it can customize plastic pallets to meet unique demands. Customers present specific application and materials handling problems to JECO and it brings process and technique to bear to develop custom designs using rotation or thermal form technology.”
