Pallet guides for UAE buyers
Written in the yard rather than by a marketing department. These answer the questions we get asked on the phone before anyone is ready to order — sizing, specification, cost and export compliance.

Who writes these
A working yard, not a content team
Khan Pallets is the trading name of Saqer Al Khan Wooden Ind LLC, a wooden pallet manufacturer based in Al Sajaa, Sharjah. We cut, nail, repair, heat treat and deliver pallets ourselves — so everything above is written from what actually comes back through the yard, including the parts that do not flatter us.
Still not sure what you need?
Send the load dimensions, the weight and where it is going. We will tell you which pallet suits it — including when the cheaper option is the right one.
