Within Sam's Club's logistics and in-store merchandising system, the loose bagged product solution applies to self-weight-bearing loose bagged items (such as dog food, rice, and potting soil). This solution ensures the stability and compliance of products during warehousing, transportation, and in-store display through standardized palletizing operations. The specific specifications are as follows:

1. Scope of Applicable Categories

This solution targets self-weight-bearing loose bagged products. Typical SKUs include but are not limited to pet food, edible grains, horticultural substrates, etc.

2. Core Operation Requirements

1. Mandatory Bottom Tray Requirement: Product units must use a dedicated bottom tray as the carrying container; direct contact between products and pallets is prohibited.

2. Edge Compliance Control: Product stacking must not exceed the edges of the bottom tray (zero overhang). Edge compliance must be rechecked after products naturally settle during transportation.

3. Bottom Tray Material Standard: The minimum grade of the bottom tray board is 32ECT B-flute corrugated board to ensure load-bearing strength.

4. Bottom Tray Specification Parameters: The outer dimensions of the bottom tray are uniformly 47.5" × 39.5" × 4" (approximately 1206.5mm × 1003.3mm × 101.6mm).

5. Restrictions on Fixing Methods: Rigid fixing of products or display props to pallets (via stapling, gluing, etc.) is prohibited.

3. Auxiliary Operation Specifications

After unitization is completed, stretch wrapping operations shall be performed in accordance with the Stretch Wrap Packaging Operation Specification to enhance the overall stability of the unit.
