Wide Range of Pallet Products
Demcor Inc. provides wood pallet and crating solutions for manufacturers, warehouses, distributors, and other businesses that depend on reliable material handling.
Our product selection includes standard GMA pallets, reconditioned and recycled pallets, heat-treated pallets, custom design pallets, combo pallets, block pallets, and crates. Each operation has different requirements, so the right product depends on what is being moved, how it will be handled, where it will be stored, and where it needs to go.
Founded in 2011, Demcor is a family-owned pallet company based in Newport, Tennessee. We focus on helping businesses find practical pallet solutions while supporting the responsible use and reuse of wood materials.
What Pallet Products Does Demcor Offer?
Demcor offers seven primary product categories: standard GMA pallets, reconditioned and recycled pallets, heat-treated pallets, custom design pallets, combo pallets, block pallets, and crates.
Some businesses need a familiar pallet format that can be used consistently across recurring shipments. Others need a custom design because of unusual product dimensions, handling equipment, storage conditions, or shipping requirements. Demcor works with customers to understand those needs before recommending an appropriate product.
Quick Product Guide
| Product | When It May Be Considered |
| Standard GMA pallets | When an operation needs a commonly used and repeatable pallet format |
| Reconditioned and recycled pallets | When usable wood pallets can remain in circulation instead of being replaced unnecessarily |
| Heat-treated pallets | When a shipment or wood packaging application requires treated material |
| Custom design pallets | When product dimensions or handling needs do not fit a standard pallet |
| Combo pallets | When a pallet made with both new and reconditioned components is appropriate |
| Block pallets | When an operation requires a block-style pallet configuration |
| Crates | When a product needs more enclosure or structural protection than an open pallet provides |
Standard GMA Pallets
Standard GMA pallets are one of Demcor’s primary product focuses. They provide businesses with a familiar pallet format for shipping, storage, warehousing, and material handling.
A consistent pallet format can make it easier to plan recurring orders and communicate requirements across production, warehouse, and purchasing teams. However, the pallet still needs to fit the product, load arrangement, handling equipment, and conditions in which it will be used.
When requesting a quote for GMA pallets, it helps to provide the expected order quantity, whether the need is recurring or one-time, what the pallets will carry, and how they will move through your operation. These details give Demcor a clearer understanding of the request before production or supply options are discussed.

Reconditioned and Recycled Pallets
Reconditioned and recycled pallets are another major focus for Demcor. These products provide an option for businesses whose applications do not always require newly manufactured pallets.
Keeping suitable wood pallets in circulation can support more responsible material use while helping businesses evaluate pallet needs based on the actual application. A reconditioned option may be appropriate for some loads and handling environments, while other situations may call for new or custom pallets.
The terms “reconditioned” and “recycled” should not be treated as guarantees that every used pallet is suitable for every purpose. Product requirements, handling conditions, customer specifications, and pallet condition all matter. Demcor can discuss the intended application and determine what available option may fit the request.
For businesses that also need help managing used pallet materials, the Products page should link directly to Demcor’s reconditioning, recycling, and sustainability information.
Heat-Treated Pallets
Demcor provides heat-treated pallets for customers whose shipping or wood packaging requirements call for treated material.
Heat-treated pallets are commonly discussed when wood packaging will move through international shipping channels, but requirements may depend on the shipment, destination, importing country, and current regulations. Customers should confirm what applies to their shipment and provide those requirements when requesting a quote.
This section should avoid promising that every pallet is automatically appropriate for every international shipment. Instead, the page should encourage buyers to explain where the pallet or crate will be used and whether particular treatment or marking requirements have been provided by their freight forwarder, customer, broker, or shipping partner.
Demcor can then discuss the available heat-treated pallet option based on the information provided.
Custom Design Pallets
A standard pallet is not the right fit for every product.
Long, oversized, unusually shaped, or differently balanced products may require a pallet designed around their dimensions and handling needs. Custom-designed pallets can also be considered when a business has particular loading, storage, equipment, or support requirements that cannot be addressed effectively by a standard configuration.
Demcor provides custom design pallets for businesses that need a product-specific solution. The design conversation should begin with practical information, including:
- Product dimensions and approximate weight
- How the product will be positioned on the pallet
- Whether the load will be stacked
- What equipment will handle it
- How it will be transported and stored
- Whether the pallet will be used once or repeatedly
Collecting this information early helps reduce assumptions and gives the Demcor team a clearer basis for discussing the pallet configuration.
Block Pallets
Demcor also provides block pallets for businesses whose operations require a block-style pallet configuration.
Block pallets differ in construction from common stringer-style pallets. The right configuration will depend on how the pallet needs to be lifted, moved, stored, loaded, and integrated with the customer’s material-handling process.
Because equipment and operational requirements vary, buyers should not select a block pallet based on appearance alone. Demcor can review the requested dimensions, use conditions, quantities, and other specifications before discussing an appropriate option.
Custom Wood Crates
Some products require more than an open pallet platform.
Demcor provides crates for products that need additional structure, enclosure, or support during storage and transportation. Crating requirements can vary considerably based on the shape, dimensions, weight, sensitivity, and destination of the item.
A productive crating discussion should include the dimensions of the product, how it will be loaded, whether internal support is needed, how the crate will be handled, and whether there are treatment requirements connected to the shipment.
Customers should provide drawings, photographs, measurements, or other available specifications when requesting a custom crate quote. Clear information at the beginning helps Demcor better understand what the crate needs to accomplish.
Combo Pallets
Combo pallets are built using a combination of new and reconditioned wood components.
This option may be considered when a business needs a pallet that incorporates both material types rather than relying entirely on new or reconditioned components. Whether a combo pallet is suitable depends on the customer’s specifications, the intended load, handling conditions, and available materials.
Rather than positioning combo pallets as universally less expensive or more durable, the page should present them as another product configuration that can be evaluated according to the application.
Customers interested in combo pallets should provide the same operational details they would share for any recurring or custom pallet request.
How Do You Choose the Right Pallet?
The right pallet is the one that fits the product and the operation—not simply the option with the lowest initial price.
Before choosing a pallet, consider what it will carry, how the load will be distributed, what equipment will move it, where it will be stored, how often it may be used, and whether it must meet any customer or shipping requirements.
A buyer should be prepared to answer a few practical questions:
- What are the product and load dimensions?
- How much does the load weigh, and how is that weight distributed?
- Will forklifts, pallet jacks, conveyors, or other equipment handle the pallet?
- Will the load be stacked or placed in racking?
- Is the pallet for domestic use, export use, or a customer-specific program?
- How many pallets are needed, and how frequently will they be ordered?
These details help narrow the choice between standard GMA, reconditioned, heat-treated, custom, combo, and block pallet options.
