Ippc pallets - Import export

The EUR pallets are 1200x800mm and are currently the most widely used type of interchangeable pallets in Europe. The dimensions are based on the international standard module of the 400x600mm packing unit. EUR pallets can only be manufactured by certified manufacturers and must be identified by the manufacturer’s numeric code. The production of EUR pallets is subject to stringent standards, so the palette marked with an EUR sign on the side of the pallet is a guarantee of undeniable quality. The EUR palette carries these characters, the EUR mark on the right side (block), UIC – the sign of the railway undertaking approving the railway transport on the left side (block) and the middle block with the manufacturer’s code number, the IPPC tag and the pallet manufacturer or pallet repair. From 1 January 2010, all new EUR pallets must be heat treated and labeled according to ISPM 15 international phytosanitary treatment.
