TECHNICAL DETAILS
The pallets are essentially a very strong flat board that is used in the production process of the bricks. The board is placed in the brick making machine and the bricks are pressed on top of the board. The board with the bricks is then conveyed to the yard or curing chamber where curing takes place. The following day the bricks are removed from the pallet and the board is again used to produce bricks.
In order for this board to perform well it needs to be:
- Stable at varying moisture levels
- Long lasting
- Light enough to be easily handled
- Strong enough to prevent flexing
- Plywood conforms admirably to these requirements.
Due to it’s cross ply construction, plywood is dimensionally very stable ie. It grows or contracts in length or width very little with varying moisture levels. This characteristic also prevents buckling.
In practice plywood has significantly outlasted ordinary timber.
Plywood weighs 600kg per cubic metre which means that most board sizes are easily handled by one person.
The plywood pallet we produce is a ‘solid whole’ and has no ‘weak points’ in it. This ensures that no hairline cracks develop in bricks due to flexing of the pallet at ‘weak points’.
All our Ply-Boards are also carefully finished off with trimmed edges and treated for a longer lasting product.
WHY BUY FROM US?
Only the best quality plywood locally produced is used in the production of our Brick production pallets. We do not use imported plywood as only the local manufacturer is able to guarantee the boards to our satisfaction.
This is both in terms of glue line integrity and timber density. When you buy from us, you have the backing of both ourselves and the plywood manufacturer.
The price of plywood relative to solid wood has come down over the past few years.
This is probably due to the substantial demand of solid wood from the construction industry and the importation of plywood. The one factor has pushed the price of solid wood up and the other has kept the price of plywood from rising too quickly.
The result of this is that plywood pallets have become far more competitively priced. When one considers that they last far longer than solid wood pallets, now is an ideal time to invest in plywood Brick Production Pallets.
