EURpallen

EURpallen is a term that refers to the standard Euro pallet, a widely used wooden pallet in Europe. Its dimensions are 800 mm × 1200 mm, which is a common size for transportation and logistics within Europe and beyond. The EURpallen is designed to be compatible with European standard handling equipment and is easily recognizable by its distinct markings. These pallets are typically constructed from softwood and are heat-treated to comply with international plant protection regulations, preventing the spread of pests.

The EURpallen is part of a standardized system promoted by the European Pallet Association (EPAL). This standardization facilitates efficient handling, storage, and transportation of goods. The design allows for easy loading and unloading by forklifts and pallet trucks from all four sides. Due to its widespread use and standardized nature, the EURpallen is a crucial component of the European supply chain. Many companies utilize a pallet pooling system, where pallets are rented and returned, further enhancing efficiency and sustainability. The durability and reusability of EURpallen contribute to its cost-effectiveness and environmental benefits.
