Claim Text:
1. A pallet comprising: at least two stringers in the form of elongate main profiles which extend along a longitudinal direction, which are connected to each other and which are located at a distance from each other in a transverse direction, wherein the longitudinal direction and the transverse direction define a horizontal plane, wherein each main profile has a cross section which comprises a bottom and two side surfaces extending from the bottom, wherein the main profiles are oriented such that the side surfaces extend substantially upwards from the bottom, substantially along a vertical direction which is perpendicular to the horizontal plane, wherein the main profiles are each provided with through-openings through both side surfaces, wherein each opening has an extent in the longitudinal direction and an extent in the vertical direction, wherein said openings are arranged at corresponding same positions on all of the side surfaces so that at least one channel which extends through said at least two main profiles is created in order to permit introduction of a fork, said pallet further comprising at least one elongate stiffening profile extending along the longitudinal direction, wherein said at least one stiffening profile is in each case secured in one of the side surfaces of a respective main profile, wherein said at least one stiffening profile extends in each case, in view of the longitudinal direction, across the extent of at least one opening in the longitudinal direction and past said at least one opening on both sides of said at least one opening, wherein each stiffening profile is arranged, in view of the vertical direction, above the channel; and wherein each stiffening profile partially covers each opening.
