Strong, Reliable Timber Pallets Made to Your Specifications
Big Tuff Timber Products manufactures timber pallets in Auckland, NZ, for businesses across the North Island and South Island. With over 40 years of manufacturing experience and our own on-site sawmill, we produce pallets built to perform across the full range of New Zealand industries, including industrial manufacturing, dairy, horticulture and export. Every pallet we make is built to order, ensuring the product you receive is engineered for your load, your handling equipment and your working environment rather than being an off-the-shelf compromise.
We build both local pallets and export pallets to any size and specification your operation requires. Whether you need a standard configuration or a completely bespoke pallet designed around your specific product, our team has the experience, technical systems and production capacity to deliver. We use our "Best Pallet“ Design programme to calculate the load-bearing capacity and structural strength of every custom design, and technical drawings are available for all PDS pallets so you have full visibility before production begins.
Built to Your Exact Specifications
No two businesses have exactly the same pallet requirements, which is why we never push customers towards a standard product that may not serve their needs. Our team can visit your site to measure up and assess your requirements directly, taking into account your product dimensions, weight, storage conditions and the type of handling equipment your team uses. For customers who cannot accommodate a site visit, our experienced sales team will work with you by phone or email to gather all the information needed to get the design right first time.
We produce pallets for general industrial use, seasonal horticulture and fruit produce, dairy facilities, cold storage environments and export shipping. Each pallet is manufactured using timber milled at our on-site sawmill, giving us direct control over raw material quality from the very beginning of the production process. This means we are not dependent on external supply chains for the timber that goes into your pallet, which translates to more consistent quality and more reliable lead times for you.
Local & Export Pallets
For businesses exporting goods from New Zealand, we manufacture ISPM 15 compliant export pallets that meet the international biosecurity requirements of most major trading nations. All timber used in export pallets undergoes the required heat treatment at our Wiri facility before being marked with the official ISPM 15 compliance mark. This ensures your export shipment is cleared at its destination without delay or risk of rejection due to non-compliant packaging, protecting both your consignment and your relationship with overseas customers.
Stock Holding & Ongoing Pallet Supply
For businesses with regular or seasonal pallet requirements, we offer stockholding at our facility in Auckland, NZ, to reduce lead times and keep your operation running without interruption. We work with you to establish a supply schedule that fits your production cycle, so you always have the right number of pallets on hand when you need them. We also offer a no-minimum order policy, meaning you can order what you need regardless of quantity.
