ISPM 15 at it's core!
Because of the globalization and increase of international trade flow has led to non-autochtonous animal and plant material being distributed around the world, the organisms in wood can be parasitic. These parasites can lead to diseases in plants and plant products. With the use of the ISPM15 regulations we prevent the spread of non-autochthonous parasites.

chronicle
“It’s not about what’s wrong and what’s good. it’s about how we treat wood.”
O. Chang - safety officer
IPPC rules and regulations and also China import regulations dictate that wood products need a temperature treatment to eliminate the risk of introduction and spread of quarantine pests associated with the movement in international trade of wood packaging material made from raw wood.
But there are ISPM15 exemptions concerning timber packaging. We will inform you about these exemptions on this website.

- Spraying: No
- Time core temp.: 30 minutes
- Conditioning time: None, however, the treatment batch should be cooled to about 40°C temperature difference to the outside temperature in order to prevent strong drying of wood
ISPM15 treatment is not always necessary...
PRESSWOOD PALLET
A direct solution, for immidiate exportation
Presswood pallets are made of the ‘patented material’. For the INKA Presswood pallets, dried wood chips are compression-moulded under pressure and heat. They can be used as a space-saving substitution for wooden pallets and they are extremely suitable for use as export pallets, as they are not covered by the regulations for solid wood. Presswood pallets are regarded as “processed wood” as defined by ISPM15/NIMF15, which is why they constitute the perfect single-trip pallets for problem-free export to all countries worldwide!
Save at least 50% storage space and a lot of transport costs.
