Wood Pallets
✘ Damaged
Almost 1⁄3 of wooden pallets require repairs. You end up paying pass-through repair costs annually from your pooler.
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%.
