Quality First Pallet Manufacturing
The last thing you need to worry about are pallet problems. Mortimer Pallet manufactures and supplies food-grade, custom & specialty spec-consistent pallets designed to make pallets the quietest, most reliable part of your operation.
The Hidden Cost of Pallet Problems in Manufacturing
When a pallet fails, you don't just lose a pallet. You lose time, product, and trust. Common issues we see in food plants include:
Each of those problems shows up on your P&L as overtime, lost throughput, chargebacks, or injury risk. The wrong pallets are never "just cheaper"—they're often more expensive in the long run.
A High-Grade Pallet Partner, Not Just a Vendor
Mortimer Pallet has spent decades supplying pallets across Idaho, Utah, and the surrounding region. We understand the demands placed on pallets in frozen foods, produce, dairy, bakery, protein, and beverage environments.
We don't start with the pallet we want to sell. We start with the loads you run, the equipment you use, and the customers you serve. From there, we design and supply a pallet program that keeps you running smoothly.
You get a partner who understands:
- The seasonality of regional food and ag
- The way a small change in pallet design can reduce damage and injuries
- The reality that your plant needs consistent quality, not 'whatever's cheapest this week'
What Makes Our Pallets Different for Food Manufacturers
Food-Grade Focus
We prioritize clean, consistent pallets that make sense in food manufacturing environments. That means paying attention to fasteners, surface finish, lumber quality, and optional heat treatment when required.
Spec Consistency
Once we lock in a spec with you, you can rely on it. Your conveyors, wrappers, racking, and loading patterns all depend on repeatable pallet dimensions and build quality.
Reliability in Delivery
We organize routes and deliveries to sync with your schedule instead of fighting against it. Plants in Southwest Idaho and Northern Utah get predictable service.
Program-Level Thinking
We're not trying to win a one-off purchase order. We're building a pallet program that supports your throughput, safety, and audit readiness over time.
Core Pallet Solutions for Food Manufacturing Plants
We manufacture new pallets built to your exact specifications.
- Deck board thickness and spacing
- Stringer or block configuration
- Overall dimensions aligned with your equipment
The result: pallets that fit your process, not the other way around.
Not every application needs a brand-new pallet. We offer:
- Recycled pallets for secondary packaging
- Remanufactured pallets for cost and performance balance
- Expert guidance on where each option makes sense
For cross-border shipping or customer requirements:
- ISPM-15 compliant heat-treated pallets
- Complete documentation and certification
- Peace of mind for your compliance team
When you need more than 'standard' sizes:
- Support your load weights and stacking patterns
- Meet cold storage and high-bay racking needs
- Reduce damage and failure rates over time
A small design tweak can pay off in fewer broken pallets and smoother loading.
Supporting Your Production, Every Shift
From frozen foods to dairy, bakery to beverage, our pallets work as hard as you do.
