You also have huge pressures on costs and margins.

The move away from white wood pallets is increasing. The need to prevent pallet damage and contamination, the problems caused by white wood exchange, and the overall complexity of the white wood process means that it’s not giving you the certainty, security and cost-effectiveness you need.
But this leaves producers with a dilemma – which plastic pooling solution should you use?

Because our pallets have to last longer, we make sure they’re designed and built better – so you always get the quality you need.
They’re made from virgin, food-grade plastic, certified contaminate-free, and built using a single piece injection moulding. This means they’re safer to handle and one of the most hygienic options available.
Our pallets help your supply chain stay compliant with the latest food safety standards and certifications. And because they are standard dimensions, designed to work with automated systems, they can travel through you and your customer's supply chains without costly re-palletisation.

Quick answers to the most important questions
CHEP uses virgin, food-grade plastic, certified contaminant-free, reducing the need for repalletisation and the danger of contamination. CHEP also takes on the repair and washing of your pallets to eliminate debris or contamination.
Unlike some plastic pallets, CHEP can supply the highest quality available – injection-moulded and designed as a single piece for more durability, and less chance of product or handler damage.
CHEP has the scale to guarantee supply, even during peak/seasonal/ unexpected demand, and has the largest network to work around major incidents that could disrupt your flow to your customers.
The reputational cost of contamination or product damage can be huge – CHEP’s higher quality platforms reduce that risk. Variable pallet quality causes delays and returns. CHEP pallets last up to 10 times longer than other pallets.
