Slip Sheet Pricing
Slip sheets represent an economical and ecological solution for the transport and storage of goods. Regarding unit cost, cardboard slip sheets are available between €2.50 and €4.50 per unit, depending on quality, size, and quantities.
Their cost price, including purchase and usage fees, remains significantly lower than that of traditional pallets, thanks to their lightness and low bulk, allowing substantial savings on transport costs and maximising storage space.
Slip sheets offer notable economic advantages. Their lightness allows for substantial savings on transport costs, as they are much lighter than traditional pallets. Furthermore, their low bulk maximises storage space, thereby reducing warehouse management costs. Slip sheets are recyclable and help reduce waste, enabling the adoption of environmentally friendly practices in your logistics operations. However, using slip sheets requires specific equipment, such as push-pull attachments or forklifts equipped with push plates, but this initial investment is quickly offset by long-term savings.
