About the EPAL 1 Euro Pallet
The EPAL 1 Euro Pallet, also known as the EUR pallet, is the cornerstone of European logistics infrastructure. With standardized dimensions of 800 x 1,200 x 144 mm, it is designed to fit perfectly into standard European trucks, containers, and warehouse racking systems. Over 600 million EPAL pallets are in circulation worldwide, making them the most widely used pallet type on the planet.
Each EPAL 1 pallet is constructed from carefully selected timber and assembled with 11 boards, 9 blocks, and 78 specially designed nails. This robust construction delivers a safe working load of 1,500 kg during transport and a maximum stacking load of 4,000 kg in static storage. The pallet weighs approximately 25 kg, balancing structural strength with practical handling weight.
All our EPAL 1 pallets are brand new, manufactured under EPAL-licensed production facilities, and carry the official EPAL quality mark. They are ISPM-15 heat treated, making them fully compliant for international shipping without additional phytosanitary treatment. The pallets arrive clean, dry, and free of any mold or contamination.
The EPAL pallet pool system allows these pallets to be exchanged one-for-one at any point in the supply chain. This open exchange system dramatically reduces the cost and complexity of pallet management, eliminating the need for dedicated pallet return logistics. Whether you use 100 pallets or 100,000, the EPAL system ensures your operations run smoothly.
