Stay Compliant: Why Pallet Standards Matter More Than You Think

Whether you’re moving goods across the UK or shipping internationally, using the right pallet can mean the difference between a smooth delivery and a costly delay. At PR Pallets, we take compliance seriously—because when your pallet ticks the right boxes, so does your business.

What Does Pallet Compliance Actually Mean?

In simple terms, compliance is about meeting legal and industry standards. For pallets, this usually involves:

• Heat treatment certification (ISPM15)
  Required for exporting goods on wooden pallets outside the UK and EU. This international standard ensures pests or contaminants aren’t transferred between countries.
• Correct sizing and weight capacity
  To make sure pallets can be safely used in warehouses, transport vehicles, and loading equipment.
• Material quality
  Especially important for regulated industries like pharmaceuticals, food and drink, or chemicals, where contamination isn’t an option.

Using non-compliant or poor quality pallets might save you money upfront—but it often leads to rejected shipments, unexpected fees, and even damage to your brand reputation.

Why It Matters for Your Business

If your pallet doesn’t meet the correct standard, your entire shipment could be held up, fined, or sent back. That’s time lost, money wasted, and unhappy customers.

For businesses shipping internationally, ISPM15 compliance is non-negotiable. All of our export pallets are heat treated and stamped to meet these standards, so you can ship with confidence.

Even if you’re operating domestically, pallet compliance supports safer handling, better stacking, and smoother logistics.
