  • CP CHEMICAL INDUSTRY PALLETS Edition: 7
    July 2017 CP CHEMICAL INDUSTRY PALLETS Edition: 7 Foreword The European chemical and polymer industry is using a large amount of wooden pallets for the distribution of goods. For environmental, quality and safety reasons there is a strong need to organise the use and re-use of these pallets. Within PlasticsEurope, a team of experts from various chemicals and plastics producing companies, together with pallet specialists, have developed in the early ‘90 a standard for wooden pallets and drafted the present manufacturing and reconditioning specifications of the Chemical industry Pallets, called CP pallets. Special attention has been paid to quality, safety and environmental aspects. Although CP pallets have been designed for specific packages commonly used within the chemical and polymer industry, they are also suitable for other loads. Tests performed by various companies and testing institutes and experience from the use and re-use of millions of CP’s since 1991 have demonstrated that they conform to the needs of the chemical and polymer industry and their customers. However, PlasticsEurope Services cannot be held responsible for any problems or liabilities which may result from the use of the CP pallets system. Scope This document describes the pallet supplier registration and the system to collect used CP pallets. It defines the CP manufacturing, reconditioning and quality assurance criteria. It informs about the safe working load of CP’s. Correspondence can be addressed to: Avenue E. Van Nieuwenhuyse 4 Box 3 at 1160 Brussels, Belgium [email protected] www.plasticseurope.org Note: The content of this document is not essentially different from the previous edition, but has been completed with clarifications about the Supplier registration (header A.) and Marking (header B.
