Heat treated pallets certified to ISPM-15 (International Standards for Phytosanitary Measures No. 15) are required for virtually all international wood packaging material.

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 Covington 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.

All pallets we deliver to Covington carry this marking.
