- Full Description
-
The Danish trading company offers environmentally friendly and sustainable alternatives to traditional pallets used for transport and storage of goods. Since 2019, they have focused on the development of pallets manufactured from 100% recycled plastic, which are sold to the Swedish alcohol monopoly Systembolaget. They currently sell 2000 pallets a month to the Swedish company with expected orders of 160,000 over the next five years. Their pallets produce 74% less CO2 compared with normal wooden pallets, which has been a major factor for their success. The pallets can be cleaned effectively, and are therefore suitable for industries where hygiene is an important requirement, such as the food and pharmaceutical sectors. Their recycled pallets last longer than traditional ones, but if they break, they can be recycled again contributing to the circular economy and reducing waste.
Currently, the Danish company is expanding its product portfolio to include pallet frames made from recycled plastic, and it is actively seeking partners who can supply it with high-quality pallet frames made from recycled plastic materials. The company is looking for exclusive agreements for selling the frames in Scandiiavia. - Advantages and Innovations
