Heat-Treated ISPM15 Pallets in Liverpool
With the Port of Liverpool handling millions of tonnes of export cargo every year, demand for ISPM15-compliant heat-treated pallets never stops. Palltech supplies fully stamped and documented heat-treated pallets to freight forwarders, container packers and manufacturers across Liverpool from our depot just 20 minutes up the A557.
ISPM15 Heat Treatment and Why It Matters
Any wooden pallet crossing an international border outside the EU must meet ISPM15 phytosanitary standards. Heat treatment kills pests in the timber, which is then certified with a burnt-in IPPC stamp showing country code, treatment provider and treatment method. Shipments without it can be rejected, fumigated at cost, or delayed at the border.
Palltech's heat treatment is carried out to the full standard. Every pallet is stamped, every batch is documented. For a technical primer on ISPM15 requirements see our heat-treated pallets pillar page.
