Frequently Asked Questions

Which countries require ISPM-15 export pallets when shipping from Thunderbolt?

Over 180 countries require ISPM-15 compliance for all wood packaging materials including pallets. Major trading partners with mandatory ISPM-15 requirements include: all EU member states, Canada, Mexico, China, Japan, South Korea, Australia, New Zealand, Brazil, India, and most other significant markets. A few countries (some in Africa and Central Asia) have not yet adopted the standard, but using ISPM-15 pallets universally is the safest approach for Thunderbolt exporters.

What happens if I use non-certified pallets for export from Thunderbolt, Georgia?

Using non-ISPM-15 pallets for international shipments from Thunderbolt can result in: customs rejection of your entire shipment at destination, mandatory treatment or destruction of all wood packaging at your expense, significant financial penalties, and supply chain disruption. Some countries impose trade bans on repeat offenders. Our ISPM-15 certified pallets eliminate this risk for Thunderbolt exporters.

Can I get export crates built in Thunderbolt that are ISPM-15 certified?

Yes, we build custom ISPM-15 certified wood export crates for Thunderbolt and Chatham County businesses. Export crates must use ISPM-15 certified lumber throughout - every piece of solid wood must be heat treated and stamped. This is particularly important for machinery, aerospace components, defense hardware, and high-value equipment exports where full enclosure is needed for protection during international transit.
