Why Plastic Pallet Color Matters

When you choose a plastic pallet, many buyers focus on size, load capacity, or material. However, pallet color is also an important factor in logistics, warehousing, food processing, cold-chain, and export operations. At LINHUI-Plastics, our plastic pallets come in multiple standard colors — blue, green, red, black — and we also provide customizable color options including white. 

Color coding can be used for hygiene control, product classification, traceability, and operational efficiency. The same pallet design can serve very different use cases simply by choosing a suitable color.

Below is a guide to what each common plastic pallet color represents, and when to choose each one.

Blue Plastic Pallets – General Use & Versatility

Our blue plastic pallets are among the most widely used pallet colors. They fit a broad range of industries and logistics scenarios — warehouse storage, general goods transport, export shipping, and more. 

Because they are part of standard color options (blue, green, red, black or customized) for our heavy-duty pallets, blue pallets often represent a “default” or “universal” choice when there is no special requirement. 

If your operation involves mixed goods, varied shipments, or standard warehousing, blue pallets provide high flexibility and efficiency.

Black Plastic Pallets – Durability, Heavy Loads, and Cost-Effective Choice

Black plastic pallets from LINHUI-Plastics are available and often chosen for industrial, manufacturing, and heavy-duty storage or transport needs. 

Because plastic pallets don’t absorb moisture or liquids, black plastic pallets offer advantages over wood: they resist corrosion, acid/alkali, moisture, and are easier to clean. 

When your requirements emphasize strength, reusability, and long service life, black pallets are a practical, economical choice.

Red Plastic Pallets – Visual Identification & Special Handling

At LINHUI-Plastics, plastic pallets are offered in standard colors including red (as part of blue, green, red, black or customized) which allows warehouses to use color coding for internal management. 

Red pallets are useful when you want to visually mark certain categories — for example: priority shipments, special goods, inspection batches, or separate zones. Using red pallets helps staff quickly recognize special loads and manage inventory or production flow accordingly.

Green Plastic Pallets – Eco / Food / Cold-Chain / Specialized Uses

Green is another standard or customizable color offered by LINHUI-Plastics. 

Green pallets may be used to indicate eco-friendly materials, recycled goods, food-related pallets, or goods requiring special handling. For operations with environmental awareness, category segregation, or supply-chain traceability, green pallets help differentiate goods clearly.

White Plastic Pallets – Hygiene, Food & Pharma, Clean Environments

LINHUI-Plastics also supplies Food Grade White Color Plastic Pallets, designed for food processing, cold storage, drinking water storage, and other hygiene-critical applications. 

White pallets are especially suitable when cleanliness is essential — for food items, beverages, bottled water, pharmaceuticals, or other sensitive goods. Because plastic pallets are non-absorbent, moisture-resistant, and easy to clean, a white surface makes it easier to spot dirt, residue, or contamination. 

For industries demanding high sanitary standards — food production, cold-chain, beverage, medical supplies — white plastic pallets represent a top choice.

How Color Options and Customization Work at LINHUI-Plastics

At LINHUI-Plastics, pallet colors are customizable. The standard color selections include blue, green, red, black — and via customization request, white or other colors can be produced. 

Moreover, pallet designs (heavy-duty, nestable, plastic boxes, container boxes) support customization of color and printing of company name/logo/identification, giving flexibility to match warehouse workflows, branding, and logistic standards. 

Whether you need standard warehouse pallets, food-grade pallets, export-ready pallets, or cold-chain pallets — color customization allows you to align pallets to your business needs.

Which Color Should You Choose? Quick Guide

• Blue — General warehousing, mixed-use goods, standard logistics, export shipping.

• Black — Heavy-duty industrial, manufacturing, repeated use, cost-effective storage.

• Red — Priority goods, special handling, inventory management/segregation.

• Green — Eco-friendly products, specialized/food-related goods, category differentiation.

• White — Food, beverage, pharmaceuticals, cold-chain, hygiene-critical storage and transport.

Based on your products, industry standards, and logistics workflow, choosing the right pallet color helps optimize warehouse operations, improve safety and hygiene, and simplify management.
