Pallets

Temperature, humidity, and dirt can render pallets unusable. Pallets are crates, generally made of wood, although they can also be made of metal or plastic, used for load movement. It is the base for the load where the forklift fits.

The advantage lies in the practicality of distribution and the height of the shelves. However, dirt, softening, and mold (fungi) are some of the elements that damage them and prevent their commercialization or long-term use. Wood is a hygroscopic material, meaning it easily absorbs moisture.

Additionally, the material is vulnerable to infestations of microorganisms, such as mold and mildew. In addition to the effects on wood, stored materials can also suffer from the damage of humidity.

Products

Products inside cardboard boxes and plastic bags can incur significant losses due to high humidity, especially if they are food items. Food products require a specific humidity level; otherwise, it will cause losses for consumers.

In addition to food, these products can include medications, clothing, furniture, electronics, products, and medications for animals, among others. Pests are the major culprits of physical losses, which can be fatal for a company. Grains and seeds have a positive characteristic as they can be stored for a longer time, provided there are effective prevention and combat conditions.
