There are many additional challenges with cross-border flows, but especially with white wood exchange: regulatory compliance, greater risk of damage, poor quality return supply, hidden costs in the exchange process, and the financial and reputational cost of inefficient or disrupted flows.
With CHEP pallets these issues are significantly minimised…
CHEP makes exporting simpler and easier
With CHEP you have one managed pallet solution throughout the supply chain, taking out much of the complexity of export logistics. Our global network means that we have people in place to help deal with any problems, wherever they might happen – and your life is much easier when you don’t have to deal with exchange issues.
CHEP is more reliable with over 146 million platforms in circulation across Europe
Our pallets are built to last longer, and we maintain and repair them so your goods can be safe and secure even on the longest journeys. With CHEP’s pooling scale you will always have the supply of pallets you need, whatever the demand.
No hidden costs
White Wood may seem cheaper in terms of upfront cost, however, there are many hidden costs that add up to make it far less cost-effective overall compared to CHEP. Find out more about the power of pooling.
Efficiency
Your export solutions need to be as efficient as possible. With all the different regulations, standards and export pallet dimensions, there can be a risk of additional delays and costs if the right pallets aren’t used. For example, Exports to the US and Canada need to be on Mark 55 pallets (US Standard Pallet) avoid repalletisation. CHEP pallets are also the most accepted worldwide for automated systems and are accepted by logistics firms all over the world – an efficient solution all round.
CHEP takes waste out of every part of your export journey
If you need help in reaching your sustainability goals, our efficient circular pallet supply chain gives you measurable C02 emissions savings and our robust, reusable pallets significantly reduce white wood landfill waste.
