How many 310 × 220 × 250 mm cartons fit on a EUR pallet?

44 cartons of 310 × 220 × 250 mm fit on a EUR pallet (1200 × 800 mm): 11 cartons per layer, 4 layers within a 1200 mm stack height including the pallet.

Best pattern: Split-Row Interlock

Cartons sit in mixed orientations, the pattern combines both directions. Most rows face one way and the remaining strip is turned 90°, so layers can be mirrored and lock together like brickwork.

Why this pattern here: Straight rows of 310 × 220 mm leave a strip of deck unused, and that strip is wide enough for cartons turned 90°. Splitting the layer this way fits 11 per layer and lets alternating layers mirror and interlock.

Here the split-row interlock fits 11 of these 310 × 220 mm cartons per layer, where a plain grid manages 10 and a pinwheel 4. Turning one strip of the layer 90° covers 78.1% of the deck footprint, and because alternating layers are mirrored, the load interlocks like brickwork. 4 layers reach 1144 mm including the 144 mm pallet deck.

These figures assume the height limit binds at 1200 mm. Weight is not shown here because it depends on the actual carton weight, the interactive calculator also enforces a max payload per pallet.
