Pallets for materials handling - Flat pallets - Part 1: Test methods (ISO 8611-1:2025)

This document specifies the test methods available for evaluating new flat pallets for materials handling. The test methods are split into groups for —     nominal load testing, —     maximum working load testing, and —     durability comparison testing. This document does not apply to pallets with a fixed superstructure or a rigid, self-supporting container that can be mechanically attached to the pallet and which contributes to the strength of the pallet. NOTE   Specific tests for determining load capacity do not replace the value of conducting field tests on specific pallet designs.

Frequently Asked Questions about ÖNORM EN ISO 8611-1

What is a "Single-User Licence"?

When you purchase a standard from the Austrian Standards webshop (e.g. ÖNORM, ISO), a single-user licence is included as standard. This entitles a single person to use the standard. A multi-user licence is required if several employees need access. It enables company-wide, legally compliant use and sharing of standards.
