Pallet spaces

The capacity of warehouses and High-bay warehouses is often given in pallet spaces. A pallet location corresponds to the storage area of a Euro pallet (actually Europool pallet) of 1200cm length and 800 width. At Pallet rack from TOPREGAL the available widths of 180cm, 270cm and 360cm have two, three and four pallet spaces.

A further unit of measurement for the required loading area or loading space in the forwarding, transport and storage industry is the so-called loading meter. The basis of the calculation is usually a closed lorry (truck). For this purpose, the length and width of the load (in particular on the basis of a Euro pallet with the given width of the truck loading area of usually 2.40m) are pre-calculated in order to apply them to the variable length of the existing loading area if required. A loading meter thus refers to one meter of the loading space of a truck or other transport container (such as a container) in length.
