How many 800 × 300 × 300 mm cartons fit on a EUR pallet?
12 cartons of 800 × 300 × 300 mm fit on a EUR pallet (1200 × 800 mm): 4 cartons per layer, 3 layers within a 1200 mm stack height including the pallet.

Best pattern: Grid
Cartons sit rotated 90°, long side across the pallet. All cartons face the same way in straight rows and columns, like a spreadsheet.
Why this pattern here: 800 and 300 mm divide the 1200 × 800 mm deck cleanly enough that plain rows already fit 4 per layer, so no rotated or interlocked arrangement can beat the simple grid here.
Pattern comparison
| Pattern | Cartons per layer |
|---|---|
| GridBest | 4 |
| Split-Row Interlock | 3 |
| Pinwheel | Does not fit |
A plain grid is the honest winner for the 800 × 300 mm footprint: 4 cartons per layer, against 3 split-row and no feasible pinwheel arrangement. The rows cover 100% of the deck footprint, and 3 layers bring the stack to 1044 mm including the 144 mm pallet deck. One caveat: a grid has no interlock of its own, its layers sit in independent columns held by wrap and friction.
Prefer stability? The split-row interlock alternative
The maximum-load layout above leaves 4 of its 4 cartons per layer stacked in unbonded columns, a carton bonded to only one below rides the stack as a free tower held by wrap alone. If stability matters more than count: a split-row interlock fits 3 of these 800 × 300 mm cartons per layer, 1 fewer, and every carton rests across at least two cartons below, so the layers interlock like brickwork. 9 cartons per pallet at 1044 mm, using 75% of the 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.
