Pine is frequently used in pallets because it is a clean product that can be kiln dried without causing any damage. This makes it suitable for shipping and storing food products and pharmaceuticals.
Oak is a considerably stronger material; however, to farm and fell oak just for pallets would obviously be expensive. As oak is used in a range of other products, off cuts unsuitable for furniture are sometimes available.
As oak is stronger than pine, thinner boards can be cut to achieve the same level of strength.
The most popular kind of pallet is made of wood because it is one of the least expensive and most flexible materials. These pallets are made by pallet producers from various types of wood at various prices and with various strengths.
