Heat-Treated Pallets

 

HT- Pallets (Heat-Treated Pallets) were developed to comply with international export regulations and for use in any industry that cannot insect contamination.  Unlike a fumigated pallet, HT Pallets are heat-treated or heat-sterilized.  Heat-treating is a safe and effective method for totally eradicating insects and  preventing future contamination.  Heat-treating does not use dangerous chemicals and there is no risk of product contamination. 

 

HT- Pallets are heat-treated hardwood pallets, which are much stronger than coniferous - softwood pallets. 

 

HT- Pallets are certified heat-treated pallets and approved for export into EU Countries (European Union) and various countries with wooden packaging import/export requirements.  In addition, starting as early as March of 2002, new international wood packaging requirements will begin.  The new regulations will mandate the treating or fumigating of all wooden pallets, including hardwood pallets. 

Clinton heat-treats and heat-sterilizes pallets in a state-of-the-art unit designed to treat multiple truckload quantities at a time.  The unit monitors, controls, and records core lumber temperatures throughout the entire chamber.  Core temperature is maintained at a minimum of 56C for at least 30 minutes for EU pallets and at 74for Australian pallets. 

The HT-Pallets come in a variety of dimensions and can be custom built for individual applications.  In addition, Clinton Pallet can treat and certify used wooden pallets.
