Cold chain logistics requires pallets that perform reliably in environments from refrigerated (+34°F to +40°F) to blast freeze (-40°F). Standard wood pallets can absorb moisture and warp in cold storage environments, causing handling problems and product damage. Proper pallet selection is critical for refrigerated warehouse, frozen food distribution, pharmaceutical cold chain, and fresh produce operations.
Florida Pallet Supply delivers cold chain pallets to Island, Georgia refrigerated warehouses, frozen food distributors, cold storage facilities, and pharmaceutical cold chain operations throughout Chatham Tybee County. Our cold chain pallet solutions include kiln-dried wood pallets (lower moisture absorption), heat treated pallets (dual purpose - ISPM-15 and reduced moisture), block pallets (preferred for cold storage stability), and plastic pallets for the most demanding cold chain environments.
Georgia's cold chain infrastructure - including refrigerated distribution centers, frozen food manufacturers, and pharmaceutical cold chain facilities in Chatham Tybee County - represents significant specialized pallet demand. Cold chain pallets must maintain integrity through repeated freeze-thaw cycles, high-humidity environments, and pressure washing during sanitation procedures.

For Chatham Tybee County cold storage facilities pursuing SQF, BRC, or FSSC 22000 certification, we provide documentation packages including wood species identification, moisture content certification, and heat treatment certificates. Plastic pallet rental programs also available for facilities requiring washable, traceable cold chain pallets.
For refrigerated cold storage in Island, Georgia, we recommend kiln-dried wood block pallets as the standard option. Block pallets resist racking pressure better than stringer pallets, and kiln-dried lumber absorbs significantly less moisture than green lumber. For blast freeze environments (-40°F), plastic pallets are often preferred as they don't absorb moisture and resist warping. Heat treated pallets (HT) also perform well as the treatment process kiln-dries the wood.
Standard wood pallets can be used in cold chain applications, but kiln-dried or heat treated wood performs significantly better. Untreated green lumber absorbs moisture and can warp significantly in repeated freeze-thaw cycles, causing handling problems and potential product damage. For Island cold storage operations, we recommend specifying kiln-dried or heat treated wood pallets to maximize pallet lifespan and performance.
Yes, we supply plastic pallets for pharmaceutical cold chain operations in Island and throughout Chatham Tybee County.
