Pallets for materials handling - Flat pallets - Part 2: Performance requirements and selection of tests (ISO/DIS 8611-2:2024)
This document specifies the performance requirements to establish nominal loads for new flat pallets.
It also specifies the tests required for new flat pallets in various handling environments and the performance requirements for tests with payloads. This document does not apply to pallets with a fixed superstructure or a rigid, self-supporting container that can be mechanically attached to the pallet and which contributes to the strength of the pallet.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).

This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 51, Pallets for unit load method of
materials handling, in collaboration with the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) Technical
Committee CEN/TC 261, Packaging, in accordance with the Agreement on technical cooperation
between ISO and CEN (Vienna Agreement).
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 8611-2:2021), which has been editorially
revised.
The main changes compared to the previous edition are as follows:
— The performance criteria for the Test 2 have been changed, and as a result, the data in the examples
in the Table 3 has been modified accordingly.
A list of all parts in the ISO 8611 series can be found on the ISO website.

Introduction
The forces to which pallets are exposed during use vary significantly. The test procedures described in
ISO 8611-1 are approximate simulations of pallet use. These tests help the pallet designer to establish
an initial acceptable balance between the cost and the performance of a pallet design. It is intended
that all results of tests performed using this protocol be confirmed and verified using field trials before
publication of performance or the commercial implementation of a new pallet design.
The nominal load, determined
