Discover five European wooden pallet formats designed for manufacturing, transport, warehousing and distribution.
The EPAL 1 Euro pallet is a standard load carrier widely used across European supply chains. Manufactured under EPAL licence, this wooden pallet is designed for industrial transport, storage and material handling. It can be repaired and exchanged within participating pallet pools, subject to compliance with the applicable EPAL requirements. EPAL wooden pallets are heat-treated and marked in accordance with ISPM 15 requirements.
The EUR pallet uses the same nominal dimensions as the EPAL 1 Euro pallet. It is identified by its EUR/UIC markings and is used in European railway and industrial logistics. Manufactured from solid wood, this reusable pallet is suitable for forklift handling and compatible storage systems. Its exchange eligibility and condition should be verified according to the relevant pallet-pooling requirements.
The EPAL 2 pallet, sometimes referred to as a brewery pallet, features a larger loading surface. Its dimensions are particularly suited to the transport of beverage crates, kegs and other bulky goods. Manufactured according to EPAL specifications, this pallet serves beverage distribution, food processing and industrial logistics operations that require a wider pallet format.
The EPAL 3 pallet has a 1000 × 1200 mm footprint, providing an alternative orientation to the standard EPAL 1 pallet. Produced in accordance with EPAL manufacturing specifications, it is designed for demanding industrial transport and storage applications. Typical sectors include manufacturing, food processing, chemicals and general logistics. Compatibility with automated handling and racking systems should be confirmed for each installation.
The EPAL 6 half pallet features a compact 800 × 600 mm format that occupies half the floor area of a standard Euro pallet. Designed for smaller product loads, it is particularly useful in retail distribution, FMCG logistics and in-store displays. Its compact footprint can simplify handling and direct shelf replenishment, provided the pallet is compatible with the equipment and intended load.
Explore the main technical specifications of the EPAL 1 Euro pallet, designed for industrial handling, storage and freight transport across European supply chains.
Buying pallets on the open market can expose businesses to counterfeit or non-compliant products that may compromise warehouse safety and storage systems. Flat Cargo's network of 45 logistics hubs supports consistent quality control, including approved fasteners, appropriate moisture levels and certified repairs. Our European network also helps ensure responsive deliveries by full truckload (FTL: 33 pallet stacks per tautliner, depending on the loading configuration), even during periods of timber supply shortages.

Find answers to common questions about EPAL and EUR pallets, commercial pallet condition grades, and their use in industrial and logistics operations.
EPAL and EUR pallets share the traditional European pallet format of 1200 × 800 mm.
EPAL pallets are manufactured or repaired according to the specifications of the European Pallet Association (EPAL) and are subject to its quality assurance system.
A pallet carrying only a EUR marking is not necessarily EPAL-certified. Its manufacturing origin, condition and eligibility for exchange should therefore be checked before purchase.
Flat Cargo prioritizes certified EPAL pallets to support consistent quality and traceability in European logistics operations.
Not necessarily. Grade C is a commercial condition classification commonly used for older or more visibly worn wooden pallets.
These pallets may show darkened or weathered wood, stains, signs of repeated use, or visible repairs.
However, a Grade C pallet must still be inspected for structural integrity before use. A broken or unsafe pallet should not be placed into service unless it has been appropriately repaired and verified as compliant.
Depending on their actual condition and specifications, lower-grade used pallets may provide an economical solution for internal storage or certain one-way shipments.
