Soon you will see the display pallet in your local supermarket. It is supporting many different products and the logistic chain in a more environmental way. Schoeller Arca Systems produces them and CONTRALOAD organizes transport and conditioning for the users of this re-usable plastic display pallet (600x400 mm).
Right product at the right time
"We are happy to sign this deal of pooling with CONTRALOAD" says product manager Ludo Gielen. "Despite the required very competitive price in this kind of business to make pooling possible". For Schoeller Arca Systems this is a confirmation that they are the global leader in the plastic pallets in Europe as well in USA. They are also now focusing on the Asian markets and a break through will be realized in 2008. Schoeller Arca Systems is able to offer competitive solutions to its customers in display, light, medium as well as heavy duty pallets. "We are sure that this development is the right product at the right moment. It also shows that using even low cost returnable plastic packaging is much more sustainable than one-way cardboard or wooden display pallets".
