EU pallet pool settlement between EPAL and UIC finally signed

05 January 2015

The European Pallet Association (EPAL) has always declared itself in favor of continuing with common exchangeability, despite the fact that the UIC broke away from EPAL in December 2012. With the signing of the agreement regarding the Common European Pallet Pool, the UIC is now following this example.
The current agreement between EPAL and the UIC marks the first step, but the real challenges of the market lie on the other side of the negotiating table: global growth requires well functioning structures. This is why EPAL has made the offer to the UIC of taking on the overall organization of the world’s largest open pallet pool (Press Release EPAL, 24 November 2014).
