Infestation restrictions overcome
December 1st 2004

Restrictions to guard against the problems of infestations and the spread of wood eating insects apply to pallets and imported wooden products. EcoPal pallets from D S Smith Tri-Wall resolve these problems by being 100% wood and contamination free, while enjoying worldwide restriction free status.

They are available in four standard European sizes of 1200 x 800 or 1000mm, and 600 x 400 or 800mm. Special sizes can also be manufactured to order. They are particularly suited to international trade where strong, lightweight, easy to use packaging is advantageous.

EcoPal is a 100% wood-free fibreboard pallet manufactured using a combination of solid and corrugated materials. It is also fully eco-friendly with materials sourced from sustainable and recycled sources.
