Ecodek Corrugated Pallets will save your company money, here's how:
|
Pallet Price:Often less expensive than new wood pallets, heat-treated wood pallets, plastic pallets or corrugated paper pallets from other manufacturers.
|
|
LTL Freight Costs:Pay by weight shipments, common with LTL shipments, Ecodek can save companies over 100% of the cost of the pallet.
|
|
Truckload Freight Cost:How much empty space are you shipping on each load? Ship more per load with a combination of a lower profile & correct sized paper pallet.
Unlike wood or plastic pallets, which are primarily available with a limited number of standard sizes, Ecodek Corrugated Paper Pallets can be manufactured in an extensive array of custom pallet sizes. In addition, stringer and block dimensions (length, width, height) can be manufactured depending on the specific needs of the application, such as two-way or four-way entry. The result is an extremely cost-effective solution customized to your exact load, size and weight requirements maximizing truckloads, and getting more units per truck load. |
|
Air Freight Costs:Corrugated Pallets weight significantly less than wood and plastic which translates into about $50 per pallet savings making corrugated pallets the clear choice with air shipments. One customer saved over $100,000 in freight costs just by using (1) truckload of pallets a month.

|
Sea Freight Costs:Export regulations put overseas shipments one of the primary jobs our pallets perform. Built using a weather-resistant starch, our pallets are up to the task in these humid environments. Additionally, Corrugated Pallets can sometimes save as much as double the cost of the corrugated pallet, making them ideal for overseas exporting.
|
|
Export Compliant:Save up to 30% because heat and chemical treatments are unnecessary (ISPM 15 exempt). Export regulation IPPC ISPM-15 requires pallets to be heat-treated or fumigated with proper documentation before many countries will except the container containing your shipping platform. These added procedures and expense are costly. Ecodek pallets are exempt from all export regulations, which can save you money on pallets and from the exorbitant expense of having your load rejected overseas.

Fuel Savings:When shipping full truckloads, if you own your own trucks or negotiate a rate with a carrier, your company can save money. Using estimates provided by the EPA (EPA 420-F-04-005), reducing 3,000 pounds from a heavy truck could save between 200 and 500 gallons of fuel each year, eliminating 2 to 5 metric tons of greenhouse gas emissions annually. Ecodek Paper Pallets are on average 30+ lbs. lighter than the average wooden pallet; for every 100 wooden pallets replaced with Ecodek pallets removes 3,000 pounds of weight, drastically reducing the fuel necessary to haul your product, helping to reduce green house gas emissions and your overall cost to get your product to its final destination.

|
Recycling Revenue:Your customers can earn $50-$100 per ton from OCC recyclers by easy recycling the used Ecodek Corrugated Pallet with their other corrugated paper recyclables. No wood disposal fees, which often accompany discarding unwanted wood pallets to landfills or pallet recyclers.
|
|
Lowers your other packaging costs:Often the weight of a wood or plastic pallet can be more than your other packaging can support when stacked multiple layers high, forcing your company to upgrade packaging to support your warehouse and shipping needs. On the flip side, after switching to paper pallets, companies have been able to reduce their packaging.
Also, a lot of companies require a sheet of corrugated to protect their packaging/product from wood pallets. With Corrugated Pallets, the top deck is the required sheet of corrugated, eliminating the cost associated with the sheet and placing the sheet before palletizing each unit. |
|
No secondary wood pallet costs:Wood pallet can cause damage, exposing your product to nail heads, mold and mildew, shards of wood can lead to product rejection. Ecodek Corrugated Pallets are engineered to be strong enough to carry your product safely, eliminating the worry and expense caused by wooden pallets. Additionally Ecodek Pallets are constructed entirely from the same FDA approved materials used in the construction of cereal boxes.
