ABSTRACT:
A pallet made predominantly of corrugated paperboard comprises a first decking sheet defining a first deck and a second decking sheet defining a second deck. The first and second decks are planar. The first decking sheet is folded to form two outer stringers extending longitudinally. Each outer stringer has a box-like profile, which is defined by an outer panel extending vertically from the first deck, a panel extending inwardly from the outer panel and secured adhesively to the second deck, an inner panel extending vertically from the inwardly extending panel, a panel extending outwardly from the inner panel, a panel extending vertically from the outwardly extending panel and secured adhesively to the outer panel, a diagonal panel extending diagonally from the vertically extending panel secured adhesively to the outer panel and bracing the box-like profile, and a panel extending outwardly from the diagonal panel and secured adhesively to the outwardly extending panel that is secured adhesively to the first deck. A middle stringer is interposed between the outer stringers, and between the first and second decks, and is secured adhesively to the first and second decks. Two transverse braces are interengaged with the middle stringer via interengaging notches in the transverse braces and in the middle stringer. The transverse braces are secured adhesively to the middle stringer and to the first and second decks. Each transverse brace has two opposite ends spaced respectively from the outer stringers.
