OptiLedge
Created by IKEA to replace wood pallets!
For years, people in the transportation and distribution businesses have been trying to force-fit loads onto a standard-sized load platform. When the more logical, effective and economical method is to do the opposite—make the load carrier conform to the size and shape of the goods you're shipping. The revolutionary, very lean, one-way OptiLedge makes use of a lightweight, L-shaped unit load transport device—The OptiLedge. These pallet alternatives not only result in unit loads that are integral to the packaged product during its storage and distribution, but they also improve efficiency and are recyclable.
