EPAL pallets have been continuously increasing over the past three years. The brand "EPAL in the oval" is protected at the international level.
In less than 3 years, the EPAL brand has succeeded in imposing itself on the international level and positioned with 105.5 million pallets in 2016 as the market leader in the European pallet.
The European Pallet Association e.V. (EPAL) reached a new record score in 2016, with a total of 105.5 million EPAL pallets manufactured and repaired. This figure is up by 4.35% compared to the previous year. The number of pallets manufactured increased by 8.93% to 80.5 million units, while the number of repaired pallets rose to 25 million, or 1 million more units.
"The fact that we were able to do even better than our absolute record of 2015 shows a very impressive performance," said Martin Leibrandt, CEO of EPAL.
The quality and safety of Europe EPAL pallets is based on three pillars: internationally harmonized standards, permanent quality assurance through independent controls in manufacturing and repair companies, and prosecution of counterfeit products.
