Common Products Made with Logistics Moulds
The Backbone of Material Handling and Storage
The term “logistics mould“ refers to injection moulds specifically designed for mass-producing durable, standardised plastic components used across the supply chain—in warehousing, transportation, and retail display. Products from a logistics mould are characterised by their functionality, strength, stackability, and often modular design. They form the essential, often unseen, infrastructure that allows goods to be stored, moved, and organised efficiently from manufacturer to end-user.
Pallets and Pallet Accessories
A primary application is the production of plastic pallets. Moulds for these are large and complex, designed to create strong, lightweight, and often nestable or rackable pallets that are an alternative to wood. Related products from a logistics mould include pallet corners, caps, and spacer pads, which protect loads and facilitate stacking. These items require moulds that can form thick walls and integrate reinforcing ribs for load-bearing capacity.
Containers, Totes, and Bins
This is a vast category. Logistics moulds produce a wide array of stackable, interlocking containers used for parts handling, order picking, and storage. This includes:
Small-Parts Bins: Often used in modular drawer cabinets or on shelving.
Large-Folding Totes: For bulk item picking and transport.
Nestable Containers: These collapse when empty to save space during return logistics.
These moulds must create precise interlocking features, robust handles, and smooth surfaces for easy cleaning and labelling.
