Euro Pallets
The Euro pallet called EPAL 1 is the classic in transport: standardized dimensions, stable, loadable and reusable. We offer the Euro pallet in different quality classes.
The Euro pallet is the perennial favorite in transportation, or as we say: the wooden pallet with the license to exchange. Because the standardized pallet with always the same dimensions of 1200mm x 800mm x144m (LxWxH) is part of the European exchange and deposit system and thus a load carrier with real added value. The sturdy wooden construction makes the Euro pallet sustainable and resilient. The EPAL 1 pallet is the most widely used exchange pallet in the world and is versatile. Dreiso offers not only new Euro pallets from its own production, but also used ones in three other quality classes. In addition, dreiso is an EPAL-licensed repair facility that renews pallets and returns them to the exchange system.

Facts and info
The EPAL 1 pallet, usually simply called the Euro pallet, is a returnable load carrier produced in accordance with European standard 13698-1. The Euro pallet always has the same dimensions of 1200mm x 800mm x 144mm and is accepted worldwide. Its robust solid wood construction combines stability and durability with the sustainability of natural materials. The Euro pallet is extremely resilient and can be driven under by forklifts on four sides, which makes handling in logistics simple and flexible.
As part of the European pallet pool, the EPAL 1 pallet is internationally exchangeable.
Basically, Euro pallets are divided into four quality classes that may be used. In addition to new pallets (quality class NEW), there are used pallets in quality classes A to C, which differ in condition, but basically all can be used to their full extent. Pallets that are no longer usable can be renewed by EPAL-certified repair companies such as dreiso and returned to the exchange system.
