The European Pallet Association e.V. (EPAL) and Bureau Veritas celebrates their 10th anniversary of successful partnership. Since 2013, Bureau Veritas has been in charge of quality assurance of EPAL pallets and has performed more than 250,000 inspections during this time. Due to the success of the cooperation, EPAL and Bureau Veritas have agreed to continue the joint quality assurance of the EPAL open pallet pool for the coming years.
The quality partnership between EPAL and Bureau Veritas has been in place since January 2013, and a review of this time impressively shows the importance of Bureau Veritas’ quality assurance for EPAL’s success. From 2013 to 2022, EPAL Europallet production has grown from 65 million EPAL Europallets to more than 100 million EPAL Europallets per year. This was only possible because the quality of EPAL Europallets is the recognized benchmark in pallet logistics, thanks to Bureau Veritas quality assurance.
Dirk Hoferer, President of EPAL,”On the 10th anniversary of the cooperation between EPAL and Bureau Veritas, we would like to thank Bureau Veritas and all inspectors and staff for their great support in making EPAL the market leader in open pallet exchange. The daily commitment of Bureau Veritas staff in Europe and many other countries around the world ensures the quality of EPAL pallets and thus the international use and exchange of EPAL pallets.”
EPAL pallets are a special example of the importance of comprehensive quality assurance to achieve sustainability goals. Internationally uniform quality and standardization are the prerequisites for exchanging EPAL pallets. Both are guaranteed by Bureau Veritas quality assurance, which enables the long service life of EPAL pallets and the associated protection of the environment and resources. Thanks to the cooperation between EPAL and Bureau Veritas, EPAL pallets therefore meet all the requirements for sustainability in logistics of industry and trade.
On the occasion of the anniversary, EPAL and Bureau Veritas have agreed to continue their cooperation for the coming years. This guarantees the quality and success of the open EPAL pallet pool in the future.
