Pallet Market Analysis – Pallet Industry Trends, Growth, and Forecast

Global Pallet Market Overview

The global pallet market has been witnessing steady growth over the last few years and is expected to register a CAGR of 5% during the forecast period 2016-2020. The market is expected to experience a similar growth rate through 2022, driven by numerous factors including increased consumer spending on infrastructural activities and the resurgence of several industries such as the construction and housing industry. The recovering global economy has increased the consumer expenditure on housing and construction activities worldwide which is driving the demand for pallets.

Numerous emerging trends are expected to gain traction in the global pallet market over the next few years, positively impacting market growth. These top trends include a greater emphasis on automation processes and use of new technologies, vertical integration by companies, a rise in power of pallet pooling companies, and the growing preference for block pallets. Large retailers are increasingly preferring block pallets over stringer pallets which are aiding the growth of large pallet poolers such as CHEP and PECO, which only deals in block pallets.

Additionally, several segments within the global pallet industry are expected to increase over the next few years, further contributing to the growth of the pallet market. For instance, the size of the global plastic pallets market will increase by 122 million units by 2022, accelerating at a CAGR of around 8%. Plastic pallets have numerous benefits such as enhanced safety, better protection from contamination, and increased operational efficiency. These benefits compared to traditional pallets are driving demand for plastic pallets from several industries such as grocery, food and beverage, pharmaceutical, and e-commerce. The global corrugated pallet market will also witness steady growth in the coming years, registering a CAGR of more than 4% during 2017-2021. Technavio's latest pallet market analysis highlights that corrugated pallet market size will increase by nearly 11 million units by 2021.
