Pallets are an important part of your supply chain and when looked after properly will last you for years. Occasionally however wooden pallets can become damaged after repeated use and when this happens our pallet repair service is here to get them fixed professionally and back on the road.
Recycling your pallets has multiple advantages for your business, not to mention the impact on the local environment.
The benefits of pallet repair on your business
- Cost effectiveness. By recycling your pallets you can make cost savings by reducing the need to purchase new stock. Refurbishing and reconditioning your pallets is simply one of the best ways to save money in the long term.
- Stock availability. Keeping a supply of readily available refurbished pallets means that you’ll have them ready-to-go as and when they’re needed. Ultimately this helps to eliminate downtime through the supply chain.
Benefits to the environment
- Reduction in waste and landfill. Pallets that are disposed of instead of being repaired fill up landfill sites and impact on available space.
- Improved resources. Reused or repurposed pallets have a longer lifespan, which reduces the resources needed to make new ones.
- Biodegradability. Pallets are naturally biodegradable so at the end of their lifecycle they can be composted or turned into wood chips for energy production, as we do here at Somerlap. This reduces the load at landfill sites.
- Renewable materials. Wooden pallets that are made from renewable materials making them an environmentally friendly option.
