Pallets & Skids

We manufacture custom honeycomb pallets and skids for a wide range of shipping and logistics applications. Every pallet is built to your footprint, height, weight capacity, and fork entry configuration — there are no standard sizes. Significantly lighter than wood, fully recyclable.

How it works.

A honeycomb skid is a top-deck platform supported by feet or runners, with no bottom deck plate. A full pallet adds a bottom deck plate for fully enclosed base stability. Both are built to your exact footprint — no overhanging loads, no wasted pallet edges.

Every Axxon order ships from our factory on it’s custom-sized honeycomb skid. We use our own pallets internally because we trust them. They reach the destination intact, weigh a fraction of a wood equivalent, and recycle directly into your existing corrugate waste stream at their end of life.

Product styles

Skid

A top-deck platform supported by feet or runners, with no bottom deck plate. Lighter than a full pallet and easier to handle in applications where a bottom board is not required. Axxon's own shipping platform of choice — every product order ships on a custom-sized honeycomb skid.

Full Pallet

A top-deck platform supported by feet or runners, with a bottom deck plate. Provides a fully enclosed base for maximum stability and floor protection. Suited to applications where the pallet must sit on uneven surfaces or where bottom-board contact is required.

Design considerations.

  • Pallet footprint should match your product's base dimensions as closely as possible. Overhanging loads reduce stability; undersized pallets concentrate load on edges.

  • Block feet allow 4-way fork entry — suited to standard pallet jack and forklift environments. Full-length runners are stronger in bending and better for dragged/slid applications.

  • Honeycomb pallets are designed for single-use or limited-cycle use. They are not intended for long-term reuse in high-cycle returnable pallet programs.

  • For air freight, honeycomb skids provide a significant weight advantage over wood. Confirm weight limits with your freight carrier when specifying height and deck configuration.

  • No nails, staples, or metal fasteners — safe for environments where foreign object contamination is a concern.

Applications

Common applications.
Representative use cases for pallets. Every application is custom-engineered — these are illustrative starting points, not standard SKUs.

Air Freight Shipping

Weight is a direct cost factor in air freight. Honeycomb pallets reduce lading weight without sacrificing structural performance.

Cross-Border Export

ISPM-15 exempt — no phytosanitary treatment, no documentation. Simplifies export logistics for US-bound shipments.

Clean Manufacturing

Pharmaceutical, food, and electronics environments where wood splinters and nails are an unacceptable contamination risk.

Single-Use Distribution

One-way shipments where pallet return is not part of the supply chain. Honeycomb is competitively priced and recyclable at destination.

Custom-Sized Loads

Oversized, undersized, or oddly-shaped products that don't fit standard 48x40 pallets. Built to your footprint, not a standard size.

Retail Display Bases

Pallets that double as retail display bases — clean, printable surface, recyclable in store at end of campaign.
