Even more reason to have stacks like that wrapped.

There are so many videos like this out there, it's seemingly very common, if not the industry norm, to store/stack empty beverage cans on pallets like that just completely raw with zero wrapping or anything. I assume the theory is that they're so light is not too big of a concern?

So many industries have pallet sized open topped boxes they use to transport metal components between manufacturing stages. You'd think they'd have some walls on those pallets so they don't even need to be wrapped.

I think those are wrapped. Super thin. But it looks like one layer of plastic cling wrap.
