If you run a fly ash brick or concrete block plant in India, you already know the daily headache of dealing with broken, warped, and rotting plywood pallets. High-frequency vibrations, heavy hydraulic presses, and constant exposure to water and steam curing quickly destroy ordinary wooden and PVC boards.
Within a few months, plywood absorbs water, swells up, splits at the edges, and ends up in the scrap heap. This constant cycle of buying replacement pallets eats away at your hard-earned profits.
There is a much better, highly durable alternative engineered specifically for tough Indian factory conditions. Rajratan Industries Private Limited, based in Indore, manufactures premium PAC® (Plastic Aluminium Composite) Pallets that easily outlast traditional plywood, PVC, and simple plastic boards.
Let’s look at the real on-site reasons why switching to a PAC plastic pallet can be a smarter financial decision for your brick plant.
What Exactly Is a PAC Brick Pallet?
A PAC brick pallet is an industrial-grade composite board made of recycled plastics, aluminium oxide, and reinforcing fibres designed to withstand the extreme moisture and heavy vibrations of automatic brick-making machines.
Unlike cheap PVC plastic pallets that can crack under heavy impact, PAC® is a highly engineered material. It uses industrial-grade plastics such as PP, LDPE, and HDPE and is reinforced with aluminium oxide, cotton fibres, and cross-linked polymer (XLP) metals.
This unique combination gives you a board that handles heavy loads without bending, does not absorb water, and is designed for years of continuous production.
The Practical Math: Cost-Per-Use of PAC vs. Wood & PVC
The true cost of a brick pallet is calculated by dividing its initial purchase price by the total number of production cycles it survives.
Many plant owners make the mistake of buying cheap plywood because the upfront price looks low. But when you look at the actual cost-per-use, plywood can become expensive due to frequent replacement.
Let’s compare the options:
- Traditional Plywood Pallets: They may cost less upfront, but they can rot, warp, and split due to prolonged exposure to water and production conditions. Damaged plywood can also result in uneven bricks.
- PVC Brick Pallets: PVC boards can be vulnerable to cracking under the heavy impact and vibration of automatic vibro-press machines.
- Rajratan PAC Pallets: The initial investment can be higher than plywood, but a standard PAC board is designed to last anywhere from 3 to 10 years, depending on the grade selected.
The 40% Buyback Asset Advantage
Rajratan offers a 40% Buyback Replacement Guarantee on PAC Fly Ash Brick Pallets.
When your pallets reach the end of their service life, Rajratan can buy them back at 40% of their scrap value against your next purchase of new pallets.
This gives the pallet additional end-of-life value instead of simply becoming waste.
Technical Specifications: The Three Grades of Rajratan PAC Pallets
Rajratan manufactures three distinct grades of PAC pallets—Fibre Reinforced, Metal Reinforced, and Steel Reinforced—to match different machine types and production loads.
Every brick plant uses different machinery. A small hydraulic press does not need the same pallet as a massive, imported multi-product vibro machine. These three grades are designed for different production requirements.
Feature | Fibre Reinforced Board | Metal Reinforced Board | Steel Reinforced Board |
Primary Use | Fly ash bricks, reflective parking tiles, interlocking pavers | Hollow blocks, concrete bricks, imported vibro machines | Heavy solid blocks, thick cement pavers, heavy-duty multi-product vibro machines |
Thickness Options | 12mm, 18mm, 21mm | 18mm, 21mm, 25mm | 25mm, 30mm |
Density | 1.08 g/cm³ | 1.13 g/cm³ | 1.13 g/cm³ |
Internal Reinforcement | Cotton Fibre | XLP Metals | 12mm Steel Tube Frame |
Expected Service Life | 3–4 Years | 5–6 Years | 7–8 Years (up to 10 years with proper handling) |
1. Fibre Reinforced Board (Fibre Grade)

3. Steel Reinforced Board
- Composition: 62% Mix Plastic, 23% Aluminium Oxide, 15% XLP Metals, internally reinforced with a 12mm diameter Steel Tube Frame with 2.5mm to 3mm wall thickness
- Density: 1.13 g/cm³
- Service Life: 7 to 8 years, frequently lasting up to 10 years with proper handling
- Standard Thicknesses: 25mm, 30mm
- Best Applications: Designed for heavy-duty, high-capacity Multi-product Vibro Machines. It is suitable for heavy solid blocks, thick cement pavers, and fly ash bricks produced on large-scale automatic plants.
Key Benefits of Composite Brick Pallets Over Plywood
Composite brick pallets eliminate many of the structural problems associated with wood by offering water resistance, high impact strength, and dimensional stability.
Here is what happens on your factory floor when you replace plywood with a Rajratan recycled plastic brick pallet:
- 100% Waterproof Performance: Wet cement mixes and steam curing will not damage these boards. They do not absorb moisture, so they do not swell, split, or become waterlogged like plywood.
- Perfect Thickness Consistency: PAC boards are designed to resist warping and bending, helping bricks maintain uniform height and sharp edges.
- High Vibration Absorption: The cross-linked polymer structure helps the pallet withstand high-frequency vibrations from the machine without cracking.
- UV and Weather Proof: PAC pallets are designed for outdoor storage conditions and are UV-stabilized to help withstand exposure to sunlight.
- Easy to Clean: Concrete buildup can be cleaned from the smooth PAC surface without damaging the board.
Addressing Real Buyer Doubts: Logistics, Payments, and Trials
We address customer risk by offering low-volume trial orders and clear payment terms for pan-India shipping.
We understand that buying new pallets is a major decision, and you want to be sure about your investment. Here is how Rajratan works with clients across India.
Can I Test Them First?
Yes. We recommend starting with a small trial order of 5 to 10 sheets.
Put them on your machine and run them through your normal production and curing cycles. Once you see the performance with your own production setup, you can order the full batch.
What Are the Payment Terms?
The standard policy is 30% Advance Payment to lock in your custom order, with the remaining 70% Balance Payment before dispatch from the Indore factory.
Cash on Delivery (COD) is not offered because products are shipped through third-party transport logistics.
How Does Shipping Work?
Rajratan ships products across India and works with national logistics companies.
- For small trial orders of 5–10 sheets, godown delivery may be arranged so customers can collect the material from the transporter’s nearest local warehouse.
- For larger commercial loads, direct door delivery can be arranged to the factory site.
- Shipping charges are paid directly to the transporter.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the PAC Fly Ash Brick Pallet Completely Waterproof?
Yes. PAC brick pallets are 100% waterproof and are designed not to absorb moisture, swell, or rot. They can handle the humidity associated with steam curing without losing their structural strength.
How Does the 40% Buyback Replacement Guarantee Work?
Rajratan offers to buy back old, worn-out PAC pallets at 40% of their scrap value against a new purchase. This gives the pallets additional end-of-life value compared with plywood that has little or no resale value after significant damage.
Can We Cut, Drill, or Nail These Composite Brick Pallets?
Yes. Rajratan PAC pallets can be cut, drilled, nailed, or screwed using standard tools.
What Is the Minimum Order Size, and Can We Get a Dealership?
There is no strict minimum for trial orders.
A standard dealership requires an in-person visit to the Indore factory and a full truckload commitment of approximately 100+ sheets. No security deposit is charged, but Rajratan looks for long-term business partners.
