Frequently Asked Questions

The bases of Large Volume Crates have a pallet structure and can be used with pallet jacks and forklifts from all directions. Large Volume Crates (the tall version of the KOPS2000 Series should be preferred).

The main enemy of wheels is uneven surfaces where they are used. Additionally, using them on stairs and stepped surfaces significantly shortens the lifespan of the wheels. In the long term, in textile and similar industries, it has been observed that fabric and thread-like objects get caught between the wheels. Over time, these objects prevent the wheel from rotating and negatively affect the use of the crate.

KAMASAN absolutely does not use scrap raw materials in production. For this reason, it cannot utilize the scrap materials it receives back. You can sell your broken plastic products to scrap plastic collection companies in the market.

The reason for this is that your pallet jacks have non-standard dimensions. Standard pallet jacks have fork widths in the range of 21 or 22 cm. You can get technical support from the supplier of your pallet jacks to bring the fork widths to standard specifications.

As with any product, there are certain rules to follow with plastic crates. When these few simple rules are applied, the lifespan of the products will be much longer. 1. KAMASAN plastic products are stackable. When stacking crates on top of each other, you must ensure that they sit properly and systematically on each other. Otherwise, weight distribution will be uneven and the crates will deform. 2. When crates are full and stacked, the bottom crate and its handle bear the weight of both itself and those above it. This naturally exceeds its capacity. Pulling the bottom crate by attaching a metal rod to its handle can cause the handle to break due to the extra load. For such transportation, there are under-crate transport carts available, which you can purchase from KAMASAN. (See: Crate Transport Carts) 3. If the material placed inside the crate overflows, another loaded crate stacked on top will load onto the contents rather than the crate itself, which can crush and deform the crate by applying internal pressure.

The standard dimensions of plastic pallets worldwide are determined as 80×120 cm or 100×120 cm. Therefore, products placed on pallets should be suitable for these dimensions. Crates with external dimensions of 60×80 cm, 40×60 cm, 30×40 cm, and 20×30 cm can both sit on pallets and, when needed, can also sit on other crates of compatible sizes. In addition, crates should have an interlocking, cross-stackable base structure to prevent tipping and flexing when on the pallet.
