Pallets: Canada

This report forecasts to 2024 pallets demand in unit terms in Canada. Total demand is segmented by material in terms of: wood, plastic, corrugated and molded pulp, and metal.
Total demand is also segmented by market as follows: food and beverage manufacturing, other manufacturing, warehousing, and construction and other markets such as military and retail.

Pallets are flat portable platforms used for handling, storing, or moving materials and packages either inside warehouses or factories or between locations.
Pallets are constructed primarily from wood but can also be made from other materials such as plastic, corrugated board, metal, or molded fiber. Pallets fabricated from more than one type of material are classified depending on the type of material accounting for the greatest portion of their composition.
Wood pallets are available in three types: new, refurbished (reconditioned), and remanufactured (rebuilt).
Pallet demand in this report is also segmented by market. In analyzing demand by market, the party who places goods on the pallet is considered to be the user of the pallet. For example, when a manufacturer of breakfast cereal purchases a pallet to ship boxes of the cereal, this is considered to be demand by a manufacturer in the food and beverage market. When a pallet management firm purchases a pallet, stores it, and then leases it to a manufacturer, this is considered to be demand by a warehousing services provider.
The term stock refers to all pallets held by users, including those not actively in use.
Key macroeconomic indicators are also provided with quantified trends. A full outline of report items by page is available in the Table of Contents.
