Epal pallets - Import export

Used EUR and EPAL palette are full-value pallets that do not differ much from the new ones and are categorized into several categories. They bear signs of partial wear, sometimes mild, light or partially gray. More worn EUR and EPAL pallets are mostly darker in color (gray, brown, dark brown) and may contain individual features that have been used during the lifetime of these pallets for repair. However, this wear does not affect the pallet’s overall functionality and does not affect its quality. The used EUR and EPAL pallets meet all qualitative requirements and are more attractive to new pallets.
