The invention relates to a pallet container (10) for storing and transporting liquid contents, comprising a rigid thin-walled inner container made of thermoplastic, a tube grid frame (12), which tightly surrounds the plastic inner container as a supporting jacket, and a base pallet (14), on which the plastic container rests and to which the tube grid frame (12) is securely connected, The base pallet (14) has a composite design which comprises an upper support plate (20) made of steel sheet, upper support pipes (32, 34) which run parallel and diagonally directly under the support plate (20), corner feet (22), central feet (24, 30), and a base pipe assembly (26) made of steel pipes, said assembly circulating below the corner and central feet (22, 24, 30). At least one central foot (24) consists of two separate steel sheet parts, namely an outer central foot part (38) and an inner central foot part (40) which are specially formed in a punching and bending method so as to be fixed between the upper support pipes
