ABSTRACT:
A disposable freight pallet.
The freight pallet is made of sheet-formed material and has a support plate (14) with parallel ribs (13,16) depending from the underside thereof. The plate material (2) for the pallet blank (1) is reinforced with foil material on at least one side thereof. The ribs are produced by forming a plurality of parallel, V-shaped grooves (5,6,7,8) in two opposing end sections of the plate, the bottom of the grooves extending almost to the inside face of the reinforcing foil (3), and bending the strip portions (9,10,11,12) of plate material formed between said grooves back from the plane of the plate. At least four grooves (5,6,7,8) are formed in the same surface of the plate (2). All the strip portions (9,10, 11,12) are folded back in the same direction, and the fourth strip (12), counting outwardly from the center of the plate, is thereby disposed with its upper surface in contact with the underside of the support plate (14) and is secured thereto, preferably by gluing (15).
