Wood: Nature's Renewable Resource

• Wood is fully repairable and recyclable
• Unlike plastic, wood is all-natural and completely biodegradable
• PECO uses only domestically sourced Douglas Fir and Southern Yellow Pine lumber
• PECO pallets are kiln-dried to prevent infestation, moisture, and mold
• No harmful chemicals or hazardous materials are ever used on PECO pallets
• All lumber is 100% sustainably forested in North America
• No old-growth lumber is ever consumed for PECO pallet construction

Reduce Packaging

• PECO's quality block pallets offer exceptional structural rigidity, eliminating the need for customer-supplied slip sheets or tie sheets to maintain product integrity.
• Our top deck board count offers optimal coverage, so manufacturers can use thinner gauge cardboard packaging without compromising product security or marketability

Repair and Reuse

• PECO's sturdy wood block pallets are designed for continued use
• By efficiently managing our controlled pallet pool, PECO pallets are turned an average of 4.5 times per year
• Strict control and maintenance standards extend pallet life to over 10 years

Reduce Carbon Footprint

• True 4-way block pallets can be stacked and transported more efficiently than conventional notched stringer pallets
• PECO Logistics team ensures full truckloads and fuel-efficient transportation

• PECO ships by rail whenever possible to reduce emissions and fuel consumption

Recycle Everything

• Less than .08% of PECO pallets have to be removed from pallet pool each year
• All retired materials are recycled into mulch, bark, or livestock bedding
• Even the nails are removed with magnets and recycled
• Nothing goes to the landfill
