Custom Pallets

Export Corporation customizes strong pallets based on load capacity, size, and product geometry from plastic, metal, paper/corrugated materials, softwood, and hardwood.

Custom Skids

Make transportation easier with a custom skid from Export. Our team uses wood, plastic, and metal to design and build skids based on your product’s size and geometry, as well as industry regulations. These skids are stackable, provide exceptional ventilation for items that need good air circulation, and are compatible with forklifts and pallet jackets for easy loading and unloading.
