FACTS & FIGURES HANDLING

ISPM 15 REPAIRQUALITY CONTROL

MARKINGS

The international pool of EPAL load carriers is the only load carrier pool in the world subject to inde-pendent quality assurance by external inspection companies. This is the only way for EPAL load carriers to guarantee the consistently high quality that they offer the markets.

Materials: 13 boards of quality timber, 9 wood-chip or solid wood blocks, 84 nails. Produced according to the EPAL Technical Regulations.

Length 1,000 mmWidth 1,200 mmHeight 144 mmWeight ca. 30 kgSafe working load 1,500 kg

When stacking laden pallets on a solid, even sur-face, the bottommost pallet must not exceed a load of max. 4,500 kg.

4-sided accessibility with chamfered lower edge boards on both sides enables highly efficient handling during production, storage and trans-portation all the way along the supply chain.Compatible with all (conventional) standard load carriers, industrial trucks and warehouse systems.

Compliance with the ISPM 15 stan-dard is the most essential condition for the unrestricted use of load car-riers in the international movement of goods. All EPAL load carriers are

therefore produced according to the stringent specifications of the IPPC and can thus be deplo-yed around the globe. Local plant protection agencies will provide information on the coun-tries that recognise the IPPC standard.

Damaged EPAL pallets can be repaired cost effectively and in a climate-friendly manner by all EPAL-licensed pallet repair opera-

tions. Following the quality-assured repair, EPAL pallets repaired according to standard receive a repair nail bearing the “EPAL” trademark and the licence number of the repair operation.

The work of the European Pallet Association, its National Committees and licensees forms the stable basis for the successful, open pallet pool and enables the global exchange of EPAL load carriers. There are more than 450 million EPAL pallets in cir-culation around the globe that are used throughout the sector and it would be impossible to imagine industry and logistics without them. The design of the EPAL 3 industrial pallet makes it ideal for the heaviest of industrial loads. Constant quality assurance and high quality materials ensure trouble-free, safe performance for users and loading.
