Eredi Caimi, a company with over 70 years of experience in the industrial packaging sector, is expanding its range with an innovation set to change the rules of sustainable logistics: it’s called ECPallet, a galvanised sheet metal pallet designed to outperform traditional wooden pallets while reducing environmental impact and costs.
Manufactured using production processes powered entirely by solar energy, ECPallet stands out for being recyclable, fireproof, ultra-resistant, and suitable for a wide variety of applications – from the food and pharmaceutical industries to the chemical sector.
High Performance and Genuine Sustainability
Weighing only 13.5 kg – nearly half the weight of a wooden pallet – ECPallet optimises transport by lowering costs and energy consumption. Its structure is engineered to withstand extreme temperatures (from -50°C to +300°C), making it ideal for refrigerated environments, cold storage rooms, or outdoor warehousing.
Compared to traditional pallets, it offers a higher load capacity in both static and dynamic conditions, with reduced flex, ensuring greater safety and stability. Its non-slip surface further enhances safety during loading and handling operations.
Hygiene, Traceability and Compatibility
ECPallet has been designed to meet the highest hygiene standards, essential for sensitive sectors such as food, chemicals, and healthcare. It is fully sterilizable and does not release dust or particles, significantly reducing the risk of contamination.
Its standard dimensions (120×80 cm) make it compatible with most automated logistics systems, while the integration of QR codes, Data Matrix, or barcodes laser-etched on all four sides allows for real-time traceability, even in harsh conditions or after multiple usage cycles.
A Sustainable Investment – Environmentally and Economically
From an economic standpoint, ECPallet presents a competitive alternative to plastic pallets, offering a lower purchase price and the possibility of recovering up to 30% of its initial value at end-of-life through a scrappage scheme.
