Pallet pieces are components of a pallet, which is a flat transport structure that supports goods in a stable fashion while being lifted by a forklift, pallet jack, front loader, work saver, or other jacking device. The most common type of pallet pieces are SLATS, which are thin boards that form the top and bottom decks of the pallet. SLATS are typically made of wood, plastic, or metal, and are designed to provide support and stability for the goods being transported.
