ISPM-15 is an international phytosanitary standard that requires all wood packaging material (pallets, crates, dunnage) used in international trade to be heat treated or fumigated. This prevents the spread of invasive insects and plant diseases. Without ISPM-15 certified pallets, your Chester shipments can be refused at customs, destroyed, or returned at your cost.
The IPPC (International Plant Protection Convention) stamp is the official mark indicating a pallet meets ISPM-15 requirements. It shows: the international wheat symbol (IPPC mark), the 2-letter country code (US), the producer registration number, the treatment type (HT for heat treated), and the wood species code. All pallets we deliver to Chester carry this marking.
