The ability to separate and rejoin bottom and top decks in the pallet
system provides significant logistical benefits. The “slaved” base stays
behind at a manufacturer’s production plant or distribution center and
product moves solely on the top deck to a customer’s facility, where it
is placed on another slave base racked in that facility. When not in
use, both top and bottom decks are nestable, greatly reducing the
footprint needed to store or ship empty pallets.
