THE problem with a wooden pallet is that, even if it can be treated to make it compliant with strict ISPM 15, it can be difficult to tell the difference between a treated pallet and a non-treated one. When the shipment arrives in a foreign land, and the customs officer has a problem determining the pallet's compliance, the pallet, and the product as well, may be quarantined (at high fee), or may even be refused entry. Some countries charge inspection fees for all wooden pallets.
The use of paper pallets avoids the export restrictions on wooden pallets, and reduces delays for shipping to foreign countries. Paper pallets save money and time, and no fumigation or certification is required.
The Ramiro paper pallets are lightweight - approximately 10kg lighter than a wooden pallet. That are particularly useful for air freight which are charged on weight. It is also ideal for one way non-returnable. For sea freight, it means a higher cargo weight. Features include:
- Easy DIY assembling at or near the end user.
- Portable.
- Saves warehouse space.
- Custom-made. Can be designed for specific applications.
- Ability to maximize truck space by using pallets that are the exact size required.
- Easy to customise sizes and other needs.
- High strength up to 1.0 ton.
Paper pallets have no nails, splinters, indentations, or protrusions to injured workers, or damage the product. They are safe for workers and help with OH&S compliance. Thus reducing lost time injuries, workers and damaged goods compensation.
The paper pallets are safe for food, and are hygienic with no risk of toxic contamination or unwanted smell. They are suitable for use with food and pharmaceuticals and work well in any "clean room" environment
