What Is ISPM 15?

ISPM 15 is effectively a passport for packaging, as it is an internationally agreed standard designed to protect global forests from disease whilst minimising delays during the transport of goods.

It is recognised in Britain, North America, the EU and China and is increasingly being used around the world in a bid to allay safety fears and minimise potentially frustrating and costly delays when goods have to cross international borders. It also aims to standardise what has previously been a confusing array of differing regulations.

The acronym stands for the International Phytosanitary Standard for Wood Packaging. It is designed to prevent the spread of harmful pests like the pine wood nematode and the Asian long-horn beetle. Heat-treating is used to kill such pests and prevent infestations occurring as a result of wood transportation.

Companies that buy new wooden pallets that have been pre-treated or have their own pallets heat-treated want to ensure that they can minimise disruption to logistics whilst also ensuring that the pallets used are safe and unlikely to cause harm to the planet’s trees and forests.

Why Choose Associated Pallets for Heat-Treated Wooden Pallets in Southampton?

When looking to buy wooden pallets, companies can be confident in the standards and service on offer from Associate Pallets.
