Wood Pallets

 Damaged
Almost 1⁄3 of wooden pallets require repairs. You end up paying pass-through repair costs annually from your pooler.
 
 Wasteful
Even with repairs, wood pallets last ~3 years, preventing you from reaching sustainability goals.
 
 Costly

They can’t nest. They can’t rack. They take up space in trucks and plants, leading to extra transportation costs.

 Contaminated
Pores and fibers absorb chemicals, bacteria and water. Shavings and dust damage your shipment and dirty your facility.
 
 Non-uniform
Each one is unique with bulges, dents, nails and fractures. One pallet to the next may vary by 50%.
