Description
CP8 Pallets Manufacturer in Bengaluru Rural, Karnataka
Sri Geetha Timbers manufactures CP8 pallets — chemical-standard wooden pallets built with a distinctive square hole in the middle, purpose-built for octabins and multi-use industrial IBC containers (tanks) with base discharge facility. As exchangeable pallets recognized within the CP pool system, CP8 pallets support the unrestricted movement of bagged and boxed raw materials across supply chains, while also handling general cargo shipping and storage needs. Manufactured in Nelamangala, Bengaluru Rural, we supply CP8 pallets to chemical, industrial, and export businesses across Karnataka and pan-India
What Are CP8 Pallets?
CP8 is one of nine standardized sizes within the CEFIC/EFTCO and EPAL Chemical Pallet (CP) system, distinguished by its square center hole—a design feature specifically built for big bags and octabins with bottom discharge, allowing contents to be released directly through the pallet opening without repositioning the container. CP8 pallets measure 1140mm x 1140mm, matching the CP3 and CP9 footprint, but with the added bottom-discharge opening that makes them uniquely suited to certain bulk chemical and industrial handling processes.
Like other CP-series pallets, CP8 is part of a recognized exchange/deposit pool system, allowing businesses to participate in pallet exchange arrangements with other CP-registered suppliers rather than needing to permanently own and track every pallet used in their supply chain.

Why CP8 Pallets Matter for Bottom-Discharge Applications
Not every bulk container empties from the top or side—many industrial and chemical processes rely on containers that discharge from the base, and CP8 pallets are specifically engineered around that need:
- Square center hole allows direct base discharge without moving or repositioning the container
- Solid, all-round structure built to resist heavy loads despite the center opening
- 4-way entry for flexible forklift and pallet jack handling from any side
- Exchangeable pallet pool compatibility, simplifying logistics for businesses trading with other CP-system users
- ISPM15/IPPC heat treatment available, essential for export shipments requiring customs compliance
Materials & Construction
CP8 pallets are built using quality, seasoned softwood and engineered to maintain structural strength despite the center discharge opening—a construction challenge unique to this CP format. The pallet’s all-round bottom deck, combined with approximately 10 top boards, 12 supporting blocks, and 4 intermediate boards, distributes load evenly around the central hole to prevent structural weakness. With proper care, CP8 pallets can be reused multiple times, making them a practical choice for businesses running repeated bulk container cycles. On request, pallets are heat-treated and fumigated to ISPM15/IPPC standards, with manufacturer marking applied for full export documentation.
Applications & Industries We Serve
CP8 pallets from Sri Geetha Timbers are widely used across the following:
- Chemical & petrochemical industries — for octabins and IBC tanks requiring base discharge
- Bulk powder and granule handling — big bags that discharge from the bottom
- Agricultural and industrial bulk materials — fertilizers, feeds, and processed goods in big bags
- General cargo shipping and storage — beyond just base-discharge applications
- Export logistics — where CP-standard sizing and exchange pool compatibility matter
CP8 vs Other CP Pallet Sizes
CP8’s defining feature — the base-discharge hole — makes it a specialized choice. If your containers don’t need bottom discharge, our CP7 Pallets and CP6 Pallets offer solid, similarly sized alternatives for bagged bulk cargo without the center opening. For container-optimized shipping of boxed goods instead, see our CP5 Pallets. Contact us with your container type and discharge requirements, and we’ll recommend the right CP configuration.
Why Choose Sri Geetha Timbers for CP8 Pallets?
Manufactured at our Nelamangala, Bengaluru Rural facility, our CP8 pallets are built to precise CP-standard dimensional tolerances, quality-checked before dispatch, and priced competitively for bulk industrial and export orders. Given the structural complexity of building a pallet around a center discharge opening while maintaining load strength, construction quality matters even more with CP8 than with solid-deck CP formats.
