Wooden Packaging Solutions Compliant with ISPM 15 Standards
The ISPM 15 standards, developed to protect against bedbugs and other pests, are a mandatory requirement in international trade, especially within the European Union. Wooden pallets and crates, which are crucial logistics items for companies involved in regular imports and exports, provide cost advantages and offer an environmentally friendly solution due to their reusable and repairable structures. At the end of their service life, wooden materials are recycled and converted into paper or pulp, contributing to the preservation of forest resources.
Kiln-dried and heat-treated woods are made resistant to moisture and humidity, offering long-lasting usability.
Since 1986, with our expertise and experience in the industry, Topçam Forest Products provides reliable solutions to our customers in the manufacturing, sales, and repair of ISPM 15 certified wooden pallets, export crates, and custom-made boxes. For packaging solutions tailored to your needs, feel free to contact us and benefit from our high-quality and sustainable products.
Economical, Durable and Recyclable Wooden Export Crates
Wooden export crates are preferred packaging solutions, especially for the secure shipment of enclosed and single-piece products. If all surfaces of the crate are closed, these structures are referred to as "export crates," whereas if there are gaps in the side surfaces, they are called "export cages." To prevent damage to products during transport and reduce shipping costs, these crates are manufactured according to specific standards. Custom sizes are produced based on the product type, dimensions, and volume for export and import shipments.
Wooden export cages, which are 40% more economical compared to closed crates, provide significant ease in handling, stacking, storage, and unloading processes. Despite their lightweight structure, these cages have a high load capacity and can easily carry 80% of the weight that a closed crate can hold, while significantly reducing the risk of damage during transportation.
The biggest challenges faced by wooden materials, especially in intercontinental and long-distance sea transportation, are moisture, humidity, mold, and other external factors. For this reason, wooden crates manufactured in accordance with the standards set by the European Pallet Association provide an effective solution against corrosion and rust. All transport components are heat-treated before assembly to enhance durability and ensure long-lasting usability. This system, which ensures secure fixation of products, offers maximum efficiency in both transportation and storage processes.
As Topçam Forest Products, we manufacture wooden export crates and boxes that are kiln-dried and pest-treated, in compliance with ISPM 15 international standards. Our wooden crates offer an environmentally friendly solution with their reusable and repairable structure, while crates that have reached the end of their service life are converted into paper pulp, contributing to sustainability.
As Topçam Forest Products, we are ready to provide tailor-made solutions for you.
