Asia-Pacific reference

1100 × 1100 mm Asia-Pacific pallet

Dimensions, area, aliases and market limits for the 1100 mm square pallet format.

Short answer

ISO background material identifies the 1100 × 1100 mm square footprint with Pacific Rim use, mainly Japan and the Republic of Korea. It covers 1.210 m² and converts to approximately 43.31 × 43.31 inches.

Market, terminology and context

The label ‘Asia-Pacific pallet’ is broad shorthand. ISO context is narrower: it associates this footprint mainly with Japan and the Republic of Korea, not one regulated format across all of Asia or the Pacific. Country, pooling system, customer and equipment requirements can select different footprints.

Method and calculation

Convert both sides using 1 inch = exactly 25.4 mm. Because both sides are equal, a 90-degree rotation produces the same simple rectangular grid.

Worked example

A clear 4400 × 2200 mm rectangle takes 4 pallets along its length and 2 across, giving a theoretical simple grid of 8.

What remains variable

Confirm the named system and actual pallet. Footprint does not establish height, construction, condition, load, handling or compliance.
