Wooden pallets play an essential role in the global supply chain, seamlessly connecting factories, shipping vessels, and supermarkets across the logistics chain. Among the critical components that ensure the strength and stability of European standard pallets, the often-overlooked pallet block is of paramount importance.

ThoYu’s advanced pallet block production solution has gained the trust of a prominent Greek client, offering a game-changing approach to waste wood management and production efficiency.

Client Profile: A Deep-rooted Pallet Manufacturing Business

The Greek client, a well-established player in the wooden pallet manufacturing industry, operates two large-scale pallet factories. As part of their growth strategy, they sought to invest in a new plant to expand production capacity. To achieve this, the client needed an intelligent production line capable of efficiently converting waste wood materials—such as sawdust—into high-quality pallet blocks.

Previously, the waste generated by their factories was seen as a burden. However, with ThoYu’sadvanced technology, that waste is now poised to become a valuable raw material for a new automated pallet block production line, turning what was once a challenge into a business advantage.

The Exhibition in Germany: Building Trust Through Action

During a trade exhibition in Germany, the client extended a warm invitation to ThoYu’steam to visit their Greek factory. Upon arrival, the ThoYu team thoroughly assessed the client’s existing production processes. While the client was impressed by the technology, their biggest concerns were related to the equipment’s durability and long-term performance, specifically the ability to withstand waterproof and rustproof conditions, as well as ongoing maintenance requirements.

Tailored Equipment for Tough Environments

ThoYu’s pallet block machine is more than just a conventional production machine. It is engineered with precision to address four critical challenges in the manufacturing environment: friction, pressure, corrosion, and high temperatures. The machine’s frame is reinforced with alloy steel for enhanced pressure resistance, stainless steel to fight corrosion, and composite materials to minimize wear and tear. The equipment also features a triple-layer coating that provides robust rust prevention, ensuring it performs reliably in the challenging environment filled with wood chips, adhesives, and moisture.

ThoYu’scommitment to quality extends beyond just the machines themselves. The company also offers comprehensive after-sales support, including detailed maintenance plans, to ensure long-term operational stability. The success of similar equipment in Poland and Bulgaria convinced the client that ThoYu’ssolutions would meet their high standards.

Securing the Deal: Confidence in Long-Term Partnership

The client’s decision-makers visited ThoYu’sfactory to further inspect the company’s track record of successful deployments worldwide. After seeing the automated pallet block production lines in operation in countries such as Romania, Poland, Oman, and Sweden, the client felt confident in ThoYu’scapabilities. Within a short time, the client signed a contract and paid the deposit for several machines and production line components, including:

8 Dual-head pallet block machines

1 Automatic glue mixing system

1 Lifter (upgraded material storage for the glue mixing system)

1 CNC saw

1 Multi-blade saw

Various accessories

Going Beyond the Sale: Customized Solutions for Client Needs

At ThoYu, the signing of a contract is just the beginning. The company’s dedicated business team worked closely with the client to fine-tune equipment configurations and optimize the factory layout to meet specific needs. This client-first approach, backed by technical expertise, was key in solidifying the partnership. As the client put it: “ThoYu is genuinely helping us solve our problems, not just selling products.”

The core raw material for ThoYu‘s wood shavings foot block production line is factory waste wood (such as edge trimmings, wood chips, old pallets, construction templates, etc.).

Equipment Advantages:

* Maximizes the use of wood waste, significantly reducing raw material costs.

* Easily produces foot blocks in various specifications to meet different pallet needs.

* Covers six key processes: automatic material measurement → automatic glue mixing → automatic discharge → automatic feeding → automatic shortage warning → automatic cutting. This greatly reduces reliance on manual labor and supports 24-hour continuous production.

Finished Product Core Advantages:

* Smooth surface, high strength, and no deformation.

* Complies with international standards, exempt from fumigation for export (meets ISPM 15 requirements).

* Flexible sizes, customizable as needed.

Beyond leading pallet block production lines, ThoYu provides a full range of wooden pallet manufacturing equipment, covering key processes such as board cutting, block trimming, block joining, grooving, edge chamfering, nailing, corner cutting, branding, and stacking. We empower clients to achieve standardized, high-efficiency production, with the goal of “one pallet per minute”!
