About EUR Pallets

The World's Most Recognized Pallet Standard

The Euro pallet (officially EUR or EPAL pallet) was introduced in 1961 by European railways to standardize freight movement across the continent. Today, there are over 500 million EUR pallets in circulation, making it the most widely used pallet type in Europe and one of the most recognized worldwide.

EPAL (European Pallet Association) certification guarantees that every pallet meets strict quality standards for dimensions, wood quality, nail patterns, and load capacity. This ensures complete interchangeability across the entire EPAL pool network.
