The National Association of Pallet Distributors (N.A.P.D) was founded 15 years
ago to promote the repair and recycling of pallets to the highest standards.
Only Companies agreeing to meet these standards are accepted for membership.
NAPD members provide new & reconditioned pallets for use both home and
abroad, with a pallet repair service & wood waste disposal service. Some
members offer packing cases.
Used / Reconditioned pallets are exempt from obligation under the Packaging
Waste Regulations. With a saving of around 50% on new pallets and the time saved
not completing the paperwork relating to PWR, it makes sense to purchase reconditioned
pallets.
The NAPD has played a key role in the production of pallet quality standards
in particular BS EN ISO 18613 – repair of flat wooden pallets, thus ensuring
a safe and high quality product.
The NAPD carries out testing to ensure its member’s pallets meet the
EU Heavy Metal Reduction Requirements and can provide customers with documentation
to satisfy Trading Standard Authorities.
NAPD members can provide customers with first class technical advice on home
and overseas pallet specifications & quarantine regulations through its
membership of Palletlink.
