Nippon Pallet Rental (JPR) announced on August 6th that it has added a "Pallet Introduction Guide" for practical use to its tool on its website that allows users to simulate how to load goods onto 11-type pallets for transport.
Amidst a worsening shortage of truck drivers, this information is being made public in the hope that it will be used to address the logistics challenges of 2024.
The Type 11 pallet is a standard size measuring 1100mm x 1100mm. Its use in inter-company transportation is expected to reduce driver loading/unloading time and waiting times, as well as ensure a stable supply of vehicles.
