How many 200 × 200 × 200 mm cartons fit on a Standard pallet?
150 cartons of 200 × 200 × 200 mm fit on a Standard pallet (1200 × 1000 mm): 30 cartons per layer, 5 layers within a 1200 mm stack height including the pallet.

Best pattern: Grid
Cartons sit lengthwise, long side along the pallet's length. All cartons face the same way in straight rows and columns, like a spreadsheet.
Why this pattern here: 200 and 200 mm divide the 1200 × 1000 mm deck cleanly enough that plain rows already fit 30 per layer, so no rotated or interlocked arrangement can beat the simple grid here.
Pattern comparison
| Pattern | Cartons per layer |
|---|---|
| GridBest | 30 |
| Split-Row Interlock | Does not fit |
| Pinwheel | Does not fit |
A plain grid is the honest winner for the 200 × 200 mm footprint: 30 cartons per layer, against no feasible split-row and no feasible pinwheel arrangement. The rows cover 100% of the deck footprint, and 5 layers bring the stack to 1150 mm including the 150 mm pallet deck. One caveat: a grid has no interlock of its own, its layers sit in independent columns held by wrap and friction.
No better-interlocking layout exists for this carton on this deck within the computed patterns. Stack it column-aligned, corners over corners, and rely on stretch wrap or strapping for lateral stability.
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.
