Heat Treated Pallets

Q: Why do I need heat-treated pallets for international shipping?

Many countries require heat-treated pallets to prevent the spread of invasive pests and diseases. Without ISPM-15 certification, untreated pallets may be rejected at customs, causing delays and added costs.

Q: How do I know if my pallets are ISPM-15 certified?

After heat treatment, each pallet is stamped with the official ISPM-15 mark, which confirms compliance with international shipping regulations. Our heat treatment facilities are licensed and inspected to ensure full regulatory compliance.

Q: Do you offer heat treatment for all pallet sizes and crate types?

Yes! We provide full heat treatment services for pallets and crates of all sizes and grades. Whether you need standard or custom pallets, we can ensure they meet international requirements.

Q: What’s the difference between heat-treated and chemically treated pallets?

Heat-treated pallets use high temperatures to eliminate pests and moisture, while chemically treated pallets are treated with methyl bromide fumigation, which is now restricted in many countries due to environmental concerns. Heat treatment is the industry standard for global shipping.

Q: Can I reuse heat-treated pallets?

Yes, heat-treated pallets can be reused multiple times as long as they remain in good condition. However, if a pallet is repaired or modified, it may need to be re-treated and re-certified to maintain compliance.

Q: Can you heat treat my existing pallet inventory?

Yes, of course. Contact our sales team by filling out a quote request and we can explain how the process works and arrange for pickup and deliver.

Why Do Pallets Need To Be Heat-Treated?

When shipping products internationally, heat-treated pallets are required to meet ISPM-15 regulations, which are designed to prevent the spread of pests and diseases across borders.

Key reasons why heat treatment is essential:

- ISPM-15 Compliance – Many countries will reject untreated pallets at customs, causing costly delays and shipment refusals. Heat treatment ensures your pallets meet international standards.
- Pest & Disease Prevention – The high-temperature process eliminates insects, larvae, and mold, protecting both shipments and global agriculture.
- Durability & Safety – Heat-treated pallets are stronger and more resistant to moisture, reducing the risk of contamination or structural failure in transit.

For businesses that are their shipping products internationally, heat-treated pallets are not just an option—they’re a legal requirement.
