EURO-pallets produced by EPAL licensed manufacturers are inspected under strict quality procedures, at regular intervals.

All EPAL-controlled wooden pallets are marked with a quality control staple bearing the EPAL quality mark. Repaired EURO-pallets are certified with an EPAL repair marking nail.

Based on standardised quality-assured EURO pallets, the ”EPAL-System“ is a cross-sector open pallet exchange pool.

On the basis of quality criteria given by EPAL and the UIC, partners agree upon the most suitable exchange basis for their circumstances:
“pallet for pallet”, pallet accounts for future settlement, etc.
