ISPM 15 HEAT-TREATED PALLETS
If you are exporting goods in and out of Europe and The UK, the pallets being used are required, by law, to be heat-treated to ISPM 15 standards. By treating pallets to ISPM 15 Standards, pallets are protected against potential infestations of pests, bugs, and other dangerous insects.
By heat-treating pallets, exported goods can be kept safe, sanitary, and hygienic to protect countries across Europe and beyond.

The ISPM 15 Standard
Also known as the “Regulation of Wood Packaging Material in International Trade,” the ISPM 15 Standard is a set of strict regulations design to ensure the safe and sanitary transport of pallets and other wood packaging across the globe.
As it is a porous and natural material, wood can be prone to pests and bacteria that can be extremely detrimental to the eco-systems of foreign environments. With this in mind, the ISPM 15 standard ensures that all wood pallets travelling internationally must be heat-treated to kill these potential infestations and remove the risks.
Here at Munster Pallet Solutions, we offer an extensive range of high-quality ISPM 15 pallets that are heat-treated and suitable for businesses in all industries.
