Can wire mesh pallets be repaired after transit damage?

Individual wires or frame sections that deform or fracture under impact can be rewelded by a metalwork fabricator, restoring the pallet to full operational specification. This repairability separates wire mesh pallets from wooden pallets, where structural damage to deck boards or base blocks requires full pallet replacement. In closed-loop supply chains where pallets return to the sender after each delivery cycle, the repair option reduces the frequency and cost of procurement over the pallet's working life.
