PDS SOFTWARE: DESIGNING PALLETS FOR PERFORMANCE

At Lakeshore Pallet, we leverage the Pallet Design System™ (PDS), a premier analysis, design, and marketing tool developed by the National Wooden Pallet & Container Association (NWPCA). Backed by over 40 years of research in collaboration with Virginia Tech and the U.S. Forest Service, PDS enables us to design pallets that are scientifically optimized for strength, durability, and cost-efficiency.

Why PDS Software?

• Precision Engineering: PDS guides us through the complete specification of pallet type, size, and style, ensuring each design meets your unique requirements.
• Cost Savings: By analyzing material usage and performance, PDS helps us create durable pallets with minimal waste.
• Performance Optimization: The software allows us to assess pallet performance under intended conditions, reducing the need for time-consuming and expensive physical testing.
