Evolution in concrete pallets and precast concrete boards for Concrete Block machines

Over the past 15 to 20 years, numerous materials have been experimented for manufacturing precast concrete boards for concrete pallets. Initially, automatic block factories were limited to advanced countries of the world, but lately we have seen a surge in such factories being installed in almost all countries of the world. The demand for precast concrete boards has surged, necessitating technological up gradation in concrete pallet technology for better products. Good precast concrete boards have stayed on while the mediocre concrete pallets have phased out. We have seen softwood production boards for concrete pavers coated with Polyurethane, recycled plastic reinforced precast concrete boards with Steel Pipes, bamboo precast concrete boards and many of the types coming to the market.  Each type of pallet has its own market, utility and a customer base that it addresses, some of which is defined by price levels.

Different materials have been used in different parts of the world for manufacturing of precast concrete boards. Some companies even use concrete pallets made from bamboo and recycled plastic. It is quite obvious that decisions to buy such precast concrete boards are made purely on short-term economic basis, which is quite understandable. After using concrete pallets that do not go a long way in quality production of concrete products, or precast concrete boards that simply cannot last against constant corrosive abrasion of concrete, production managers are keen to check out the latest technological innovations to improve their production as well as quality.

Softwood and Hardwood have their own inherent issues in terms of longevity and absence of consistent quality of precast concrete boards. Softwood coated with polyurethane has not found a lot of takers, as there have been talks of moisture seepage through inevitable holes in concrete pallets. Recycled plastic precast concrete boards, although a great idea, are not able to remove their brittle nature, causing mayhem on production line.

Rhino Composite Pallets, in contrast, have been able to engineer fine layers of hardwood and choose the best quality of each of different types. Research and development of such precast concrete boards has ensured that it offers excellent vibration transmission, longevity, choice of surfaces, high density and abrasion resistance; all in one go.

Imagine using a dense production pallet for your concrete blocks with a abrasion resistant surface. Would love to know your opinion about the friction between concrete and fibre compared to the concrete and wood.
