Solid Fiber Slip Sheets (Cardboard Pallet Sheets)
Marvatex manufactures high-performance solid fiber slip sheets designed to replace traditional wooden pallets. Often referred to as cardboard pallet sheets or fiber slip sheets, these durable sheets allow you to ship up to 15% more product in a container. They are designed specifically for use with forklift push-pull attachments, making them the ideal pallet alternative for export and domestic shipping.
The Physics Haven’t Changed (Even if the Haircuts Have).
This video was filmed over two decades ago, but the math is as true today as it was then. Pallets are still heavy, space is still expensive, and Slip Sheets are still the smartest way to cut costs. We thought about filming a 4K version, but why mess with a classic argument that still saves you money?
What Makes Solid Fiber Slip Sheets So Strong?
Forklift Compatible: Designed for seamless operation with standard push-pull forklift attachments.
Cost Effective: Slip sheets cost significantly less than wooden pallets and eliminate pallet exchange fees.
Maximize Shipping Volume: Because fiber slip sheets are much thinner than pallets, you can load more goods into every truck or container.
What are Carboard Slip Sheets?
Q: Are solid fiber slip sheets the same as cardboard slip sheets? A: Yes. Solid fiber slip sheets are a heavy-duty type of cardboard pallet sheet. They offer higher tensile strength and moisture resistance compared to standard corrugated sheets.
Q: Do I need special equipment to use slip sheets? A: Yes. To handle slip sheets for pallets, your forklift must be equipped with a push-pull attachment. This device grips the lip of the sheet to pull the load onto the forks.
Q: Why use slip sheets instead of pallets? A: Using slip sheets for shipping reduces weight, saves storage space, and eliminates the need for heat-treated wood (ISPM-15) for export.
Sustainable & 100% Recyclable Packaging
Solid fiber slip sheets are an eco-conscious choice for modern supply chains. Unlike chemically treated wood or non-biodegradable plastics, our cardboard pallet sheets are manufactured from recycled renewable resources.
100% Repulpable: Our sheets can be easily recycled directly into the paper stream, reducing landfill waste.
ISPM-15 Exempt: Because they are paper-based, our slip sheets require no heat treatment or fumigation for export, making them a hassle-free sustainable pallet alternative.
Reduce Carbon Footprint: By eliminating heavy wooden pallets, you significantly reduce transport weight and CO2 emissions per load.
Plastic Slip Sheets (HDPE) for Moisture Protection
Marvatex offers durable plastic slip sheets for supply chains where excess moisture is a factor. Extruded from high-density polyethylene (HDPE), these sheets are impervious to water and humidity.
Built for Wet Environments: We recommend plastic slip sheets for pallets when inventory is stored outdoors or in facilities where shipping docks are hosed down regularly.
Secure & Durable: Our plastic sheets are black in color and feature friction embossing on the top side to prevent product shifting. They are significantly more durable than fiber and can be washed and reused multiple times.
Cost Consideration: While HDPE slip sheets offer superior longevity and water resistance, they are more expensive than solid fiber. If your application does not involve high moisture, we recommend our Solid Fiber Slip Sheets for the most cost-effective solution.
