Smart Light Pac 1208 & 1210
SLP-1208 / SLP-1210
A lightweight, three-part carrier — lid, foldable side walls and a plastic pallet — that folds down 65–70% for the return trip. Available in two footprints (1200 × 800 and 1200 × 1000), each with variable ring heights (990 / 1260) that flex the volume to the job; low tare keeps handling and freight light.

Step-by-step guide with video for handling this carrier correctly.
Why this carrier
Folds 65–70%
Collapses to a fraction of its volume for low-cost return transport.
Light & hygienic
Low tare incl. lid; ideal for high-value and hygiene-sensitive goods.
Two footprints, variable heights
Choose 1200 × 800 or 1200 × 1000, then flex the volume via the ring height — one base, many configurations.
Tracked via SAM
RFID tracking and product security through the RECALO SAM system.

Designed down to the detail
How the Smart Light Pac is built and works, and why each detail cuts handling, freight and waste.
Three parts, one clean loop
Lid, a foldable ring and a plastic pallet. Set it up to fill, fold it down 65 to 70% for the return. Fewer return transports, less stored empty volume, one carrier that keeps circulating.
Light where it counts, stiff where it matters
The foldable ring is built from twin-wall polypropylene sandwich panels with a rigid truss core: high stiffness at low weight. That keeps tare and freight cost down, while the closed surfaces stay easy to clean for hygiene-sensitive goods.
The ring folds flat
Empty, the ring collapses onto the pallet. Its panels fold in one of three geometries: C, Z or M.
Secure to stack, easy to fill
Corner clip closures lock the lid to the base for safe stacking and transport. A fold-down drop door with a velcro fastener opens the front for ergonomic filling and emptying, with no unstacking and no lifting over the wall.
A closure that needs no hands
The closure works by pressure, not by hand. The side walls can always be placed correctly, and a double lock keeps the carrier tightly shut in transit. Principle: pressure lock. The benefit for you: no extra handling of the closures when you assemble the box, exactly what automated lines need.
The flexible mechanism in the lock
The locking mechanism carries a flexible element that the ring can press outwards. Once the ring is in position, the element moves back and fixes the side walls.
How it works
The ring slides down and pushes the flexible mechanism outwards. With the ring in position, the mechanism automatically returns to its natural position.
During assembly and disassembly
Assembly fixes the ring with gravity and compressive force, disassembly releases it with a lift and a pull. In both directions: no bending over and no manual effort on the closures.
The lid finds its place
Guide ribs in all four corners of the lid steer it onto the ring, so it closes fast and intuitively — no struggling to line up the side walls, whether a person or a machine sets the lid.
A base built to last
Enlarged 206 mm feet keep the carrier stable in high-bay racks and on automatic conveyors. The skids are held by bayonet fittings instead of welds, so a damaged skid swaps out in seconds with no unstable welding — and the fully closed base leaves no water pockets inside.
Maximum usable volume
Thin, stiff sandwich walls keep the outside compact while opening up the inside: up to around 1,200 litres of usable volume. More product per carrier means fewer trips and a lower storage, container and freight cost per litre.
Efficiency in every scan
Every SLP carries an integrated barcode and RFID transponder. That enables fast bulk scanning and accurate, efficient inventory management in the RECALO SAM system.
RFID transponder
Integrated in the barcode label on every carrier.
Bulk RFID scanning
Read many carriers at once, no line of sight needed.
Safe data transfer
Scans sync to the RECALO cloud automatically.

Where it fits
Lighter goods
When the product is on the lighter side and blocking is not a big risk: low tare, easy handling and low freight; the variable ring height flexes the volume.
High-value & hygiene-sensitive
Dust and lid protection, easy to clean; an optional light divider/intermediate layer allows simple partitioning. (Heavy goods with a blocking risk? → Smart Heavy Pac.)
Used across all FMCG industries
Food, cosmetics, beverages, pharma, chemical, household and hygiene.

Dividing & separation
Intermediate Layer
A flat intermediate layer that stacks levels of goods inside a Smart Light Pac (not an SHS shelf). Combinable with the X-divider insert.
X-Divider Insert
A drop-in X-shaped divider that splits a Smart Light Pac into four compartments — separate and protect goods without a second carrier. Combinable with an intermediate layer.
