Slip Sheets: Slim Profile, Heavy-Duty Performance

The Slip Sheet 40x48 29ECT C Flute Kraft is a smart alternative to traditional wooden pallets for warehouse operations looking to cut weight, save space, and streamline costs. Made from durable 29 ECT corrugated kraft paper with a C flute structure, this slip sheet offers impressive strength and load support while maintaining a slim, lightweight profile. With 250 units per pallet, it’s a high-volume solution ideal for high-throughput environments.

One of the biggest advantages of using slip sheets is the significant reduction in shipping weight. Unlike wood or plastic pallets, slip sheets add virtually no extra weight to your load—helping you reduce freight costs over time. They're also space-saving. Because they’re only millimeters thick, you can store hundreds in the space it would take to store just a few pallets. This makes them a great choice for operations that are tight on storage or need to maximize trailer capacity.

Slip sheets are best used in tandem with a push-pull attachment on a forklift or specialized equipment designed to grip and move product loads without a traditional pallet. They’re ideal for shipping to customers who have similar handling capabilities or for closed-loop systems where packaging is not expected to return. They're commonly used in industries like food and beverage, consumer goods, and export shipping—anywhere minimizing load weight and maximizing shipping efficiency is a priority.

To use, simply place the slip sheet underneath your stacked product. The extended tab allows the push-pull mechanism to grab and slide the load onto or off a trailer or warehouse floor. Despite being lightweight, the 29 ECT C flute construction delivers a solid base for stable stacking and protection. The kraft material also offers excellent resistance to compression and moisture under normal transit conditions.

For businesses looking to make their shipping more efficient, sustainable, and cost-effective, the 40x48 slip sheet is a practical and proven tool. It reduces material handling expenses, minimizes waste, and aligns with modern supply chain goals around optimization and sustainability.
