Frequently Asked Questions
Everything brand managers, retail buyers and procurement teams need to know about custom cardboard pallet skirts and pallet wraps from Holidaypac
What is a cardboard pallet skirt and how is it different from a pallet wrap?
A cardboard pallet skirt (sometimes called a pallet wrap, pallet display skirt or pallet hugger) is a printed corrugated panel that wraps around the four sides of a pallet to hide the pallet structure and turn it into an eye-catching in-store POP display. While the words "pallet skirt" and "pallet wrap" are often used interchangeably, a skirt usually refers to a shorter band hiding only the pallet base, whereas a full pallet wrap may cover the entire stack height. Holidaypac produces both styles in custom sizes, full-color print and quick-assembly designs for retailers and brands worldwide.
What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for custom printed pallet skirts at Holidaypac?
Holidaypac offers a flexible MOQ on custom printed pallet skirts and pallet wraps starting from just 200 sets for standard sizes, and 500–1,000 sets for fully bespoke artwork, structural die-cuts or special board grades. Lower MOQs are available for sampling, in-store trials and seasonal campaigns. As a direct cardboard pallet skirt manufacturer in China, we keep tooling, plate and setup fees low, which makes us a cost-effective wholesale supplier for brands, agencies and retail chains testing new POP display programs.
Can Holidaypac produce pallet skirts that fit Costco, Walmart, Target and Sam's Club pallet display standards?
Yes. We regularly manufacture pallet skirts and pallet wraps that comply with the dimensional and graphic requirements of major US big-box retailers including Costco, Walmart, Sam's Club, Target, Kroger and BJ's. Our standard sizes cover GMA 48×40″ pallets, half-pallet 48×20″ and quarter-pallet displays, and we can match any retailer-specified height, bleed and barcode placement. Send us your retailer planogram or vendor spec sheet and our structural team will engineer a pallet skirt that passes compliance on the first submission.
What materials and board thicknesses do you offer for cardboard pallet skirts and wraps?
Holidaypac stocks B-flute, E-flute, EB double-wall and 4mm Correx-style fluted plastic, depending on the load weight and reuse expectations. For single-use promotional pallet wraps we recommend B-flute kraft or white-top liner with high-build litho or flexo print. For heavy-duty multi-trip pallet skirts we offer EB-flute or solid grey board with PP-laminated finish for moisture resistance. All boards are FSC-certified, ISO 9001 produced, and printed with low-migration, food-safe water-based inks where required.
Are Holidaypac pallet skirts eco-friendly, recyclable and FSC certified?
All our cardboard pallet skirts and pallet wraps are 100% recyclable, made from FSC-certified virgin or recycled fibre, and printed with water-based or soy-based inks that meet EU REACH, US TSCA and ASTM standards. We also offer biodegradable kraft pallet skirts with no plastic lamination, and uncoated mono-material designs that retailers can recycle alongside their existing OCC waste stream. This makes Holidaypac an ideal eco-friendly pallet skirt supplier for brands committed to sustainable retail packaging.
How long is sampling and mass production for custom pallet skirts and wraps?
Standard sampling takes 5–7 working days for a printed mock-up and 10–12 working days for a hand-made structural sample with full graphics. Mass production lead time is typically 12–18 working days after artwork sign-off, depending on order quantity, board thickness and finishing (varnish, lamination, spot UV). Holidaypac runs in-house die-cutting, offset and flexo lines, so we control the full schedule and can rush priority orders for retail reset windows or promotional launches.
Can I customize the size, height, shape and graphics of my pallet skirt?
Absolutely. Every Holidaypac pallet skirt is fully customizable: size (full pallet, half pallet, quarter pallet or odd dimensions), height (from 6″ band skirts to full 60″ tall pallet wraps), shape (straight, contour-cut, die-cut window, header card extensions) and graphics (CMYK, Pantone spot colors, metallic foil, spot UV, embossing). Our in-house structural designers will turn your brand guideline, photography and dieline into a print-ready pallet skirt artwork at no charge for confirmed orders.
Where does Holidaypac ship pallet skirts, and what are typical lead times to the US, EU and Australia?
Holidaypac ships custom pallet skirts and pallet wraps worldwide from our factory in Shenzhen, China. Door-to-door sea freight to the US West Coast typically arrives in 22–28 days, US East Coast 30–38 days, Northern Europe 30–35 days and Australia 18–22 days. We also offer express air freight for urgent retail launches (5–8 days) and full export documentation including FSC, fumigation, COO and commercial invoice. Choose Holidaypac as your pallet skirt manufacturer and we handle production, logistics and compliance under one roof.
