*The iGPS fleet includes pallets with UL and FM certifications, pallets with UL certification only, as well as pallets without certification. Certification status may vary by pallet, generation and model.
(1)Gen 1 pallets (manufactured by Schoeller Arca Systems Inc.- a/k/a Current Generation) received UL 2335 listing on July 20, 2007 and FM Approvals 4996 listing BiPP4840 HR 6R on September 8, 2008 to September 25, 2012.
(2)Certain Gen 3.5 pallets (Next Generation) received UL 2335 listing on October 26, 2016.
(3)Certain Gen 3.6 & 3.6.3 pallets (Next Generation) received UL 2335 listing on November 2, 2017.
(4)Certain Gen 4.0 pallets (Next Generation) received UL 2335 listing on November 2, 2017.
(5)Certain Gen 6 pallets received UL 2335 listing on February 29, 2024.
Other:
(6)Due to the effects of thermal expansion and contraction, and deviations in the manufacturing process, all dimensions and weight are approximate.
(7)All Gen 1 pallets manufactured between March 2010 and September 2012 received NSF certification for this timeframe.

Notes: Use conditions vary by loading method, prevailing temperature, and length of storage time. Static Load: Compression strength on a level floor with a uniformly distributed load at a room temperature of ~70 °F. Racking Load: Uniformly distributed load along the longitudinal sides, resting on two supports of two inches or more in width along the entire longitudinal side. iGPS recommends testing any pallet proposed in the application prior to implementing the full system. Dynamic Load: On the fork with uniformly distributed load at ambient temperature of ~70 °F. Capacity is dependent upon application and use environment. Elevated temperatures and concentrated loads can affect capacity. Customers should check with iGPS for suitability in their applications. Customers are required to validate for themselves the suitability of iGPS Pallets for their particular application and facility. Some applications may require additional support by underpinning, appropriately placed crossbars, or mesh. Because each application is unique, customers assume all risks associated with their actual use of iGPS pallets.
All pallet types are considered homogenous for use in open pooling; therefore, pallet orders are fulfilled with mixed loads, unless otherwise requested, and are subject to sortation fees.
