The system has already proven highly effective in the UK, where it is used by six major retailers and over 150 FMCG companies.
Tosca, a global provider of reusable and recyclable plastic packaging, is extending the reach of its UDP half pallet after major success in the UK. The durable, reusable pallet — originally developed for beverage distribution and merchandising — is now being adopted by retailers across Europe for its mix of efficiency, sustainability, and sales impact.
Built for fast-moving consumer goods, the UDP half pallet offers a compact 800 × 600 mm design with a load capacity of up to 500 kg. Its lightweight and ergonomic structure makes it easy to handle throughout the supply chain, helping reduce manual labour and transportation costs while speeding up time-to-shelf.
On the shop floor, the half pallet acts as a retail-ready display, allowing staff to move stock directly from truck to sales area without unpacking or shelving. Its pop-up locators keep trays stable and tidy, cutting product damage and improving presentation. This makes it ideal for high-impact promotions and end-of-aisle displays, helping retailers boost visibility and drive impulse purchases even in limited spaces.
The system has already proven highly effective in the UK, where it is used by six major retailers and over 150 FMCG companies. Combined with Tosca’s reusable beverage trays, the pallet has improved distribution efficiency and generated significant sales growth. Tosca’s EMEA leadership notes that the solution has shifted from a logistics tool to a proven revenue driver, allowing faster promotions and better space optimisation.
Beyond commercial gains, the UDP half pallet also supports sustainability goals. Independent analysis shows that compared to a single-use display of 100 products, it can cut carbon emissions by 400–600 kg CO₂ equivalent. Fully reusable and recyclable, it aligns with circular economy principles and helps companies meet upcoming EU PPWR and EPR requirements.
With growing interest from European retailers, Tosca’s UDP half pallet is emerging as a future-proof, circular solution that combines operational performance, cost efficiency, and environmental responsibility.
