High density is the source of strong natural character.
Density gives Southern Pine weight, wear resistance, and strength. While relatively easy to work, this wood stands up well under rough treatment. It is comparable to hardwood species such as maple, ash, and elm in it's ability to hold fastenings. Estimates of pallet strength, deformation, and durability are generated from user-specified descriptions of the pallet and its handling performance levels. In other words, your pallet manufacturer can design a Southern Pine pallet using scientifically valid methods and a high degree of confidence that your material handling needs will be met for strength, design, and racking.
