Plywood pallet collar lid closing a stack of four wooden collars on a Euro pallet

Pallet collar lids for sale

A pallet collar lid is a flat wooden panel that closes the top collar of a stack. Ours fit 1200 x 800, 1200 x 1000 and 800 x 600 mm collars, in 9 mm plywood or softwood, sold new and delivered across the UK, priced to your postcode.

Pallet lids and wooden pallet lids are the same product. Buy the lids on their own for collars you already run, or with new collars on one delivery. A plywood lid goes abroad without the ISPM 15 mark; a softwood lid needs it. Every quote names the lids, any collars and the delivered price.

Pallet collar lid specification

Our pallet collar lid is a flat 9 mm plywood or softwood panel with battens on its underside, cut to the footprint of a 1200 x 800, 1200 x 1000 or 800 x 600 mm collar.

A new lid closes a stack of second-hand collars as well as new ones.

Closing a collar stack so the load is covered on all sides; a flat top to strap over; keeping dust and rain off stored goods

No standard sets lid sizes, so these are the sizes we stock. The collars themselves, in every size and height, are on our main pallet collars page.

Which pallet collar lid fits your collars?

The pallet collar lid that fits is the one with the same footprint as your collars, at 1200 x 800, 1200 x 1000 or 800 x 600 mm, which is also the footprint of the pallet underneath.

1200 x 1000UK standard palletsUK standard pallet, EPAL 2, EPAL 3, CP1, CP6
800 x 600Half palletsEPAL 6, EPAL 7

1000 x 1200 is the same footprint written the other way round, so a 1200 x 1000 lid fits. The matching collars are Euro pallet collars and pallet collars 1200 x 1000. Not sure which you run? Measure the outside of one collar, long side first, and put it in the quote.

How a lid closes a stack of pallet collars

A stack of pallet collars takes one lid, laid on the top collar with its battens facing down, however many collars sit below it.

  1. Lay the lid on the top collar once the load is in, battens down.
  2. Fix it with straps over the whole stack, or with screws or nails into the top collar's boards.
  3. Lift it off at the other end before the collars come off and fold flat.

Straps leave the lid and collars free of holes, so both go back into use as they came. Screw or nail the lid when the load travels on its own and has to stay closed.

Pallet collar lids for export

Pallet collar lids for export follow their material, so a plywood lid is exempt from ISPM 15 as processed wood, and a softwood lid needs ISPM 15 treatment and a legible mark, according to GOV.UK, including loads from Great Britain to Northern Ireland.

Heat treatment means 56°C at the core for at least 30 minutes, so a softwood lid is treated the same way as the collars.

Softwood lid
Treated and marked, as the collars are
Heat treatment
56°C at the core for at least 30 minutes, whole profile

A legible mark removes the need for a phytosanitary certificate, and a certificate cannot replace the mark. Wood packaging that fails ISPM 15 "could be rejected or destroyed", according to GOV.UK. We supply softwood lids heat treated and marked when you tick the export box on the quote, and the collars under them come the same way as heat-treated pallet collars.

Pallet collar lid FAQs

What size pallet lid do I need?

You need the lid that matches your collar's footprint, which is 1200 x 800 mm for Euro collars, 1200 x 1000 mm for UK standard collars and 800 x 600 mm for half collars. One lid closes a whole stack.

Are wooden pallet tops the same as pallet lids?

Yes, a wooden pallet top sold with collars is a pallet collar lid, a flat plywood or board panel that closes the stack. A pallet's own top deck is part of the pallet.

Can I buy pallet lids without collars?

Yes, we sell pallet lids on their own, sized to the collars you already run, with no minimum order. Tell us the collar size, the number of lids and your postcode.
