The Düsseldorf Pallet
The Düsseldorf pallet is a pallet that meets all the requirements of industry, transport and trade. It has a dimension of 80 x 60 centimeters, thus the size of half a Euro pallet. That is why the pallet is also called a half-pallet. It meets all the criteria to be used both for transportation and presentation of goods in a store. Beverage crates are often placed on Düsseldorf pallets in the supermarket. Unlike display pallets (40 x 60/80 cm pallets/quarter pallets), the Düsseldorf pallet, like the Euro pallet, can be picked up from four sides. The pallets can be loaded and picked up, for example, with a pallet truck or forklift.

Which trucks are subject to tolls in Germany?
In March 1986, the Düsseldorf pallet was presented to the public at the ISB Entrepreneurs’ Conference in Hanover and is now used by a large number of food retailers. It is often used as a direct sales stand, without the need to sort the goods into shelves first. The standardization of the Düsseldorf pallet also makes it possible to use them in an exchange process. This makes the use economical and cost-effective.
What is the composition of the cost of tolls for trucks?
In 1985, Walter Vieth presented the half pallet to the ISB Logistics Working Group and met with the direct approval of the other representatives from trade and industry. A name had not yet been decided upon, and so Walter Vieth suggested that Düsseldorf be included in the name as the meeting place. This is how the name “Düsseldorf Palette” came about.
