The Pallet LOOP

The circular economy pallet reuse service for the UK Construction industry

Incentivising pallet returns via a cost-effective, easy-to-use, returnable pallet system, we provide the construction industry with a simple, circular approach to pallet use that’s greener, leaner, safer, smarter..

Shifting the sector from the linear practice of ‘deliver, distribute and discard’ to the more sustainable model of ‘recover, repair, reuse’, we’re actively eliminating avoidable pallet waste from the building materials supply chain.

Founded by some of the biggest names in the UK pallet industry, The Pallet LOOP is now part of BSW Group, and a member of Binderholz – Europe’s leading timber processing operation.

The Pallet LOOP. Transforming how building materials move.

THE PROBLEM WITH SINGLE USE PALLETS

Every year more than 20 million pallets are manufactured and distributed throughout the UK construction industry, but less than 10% are reused. This is in stark contrast to the FMCG retail sector, where pallet reuse is typically around 98%. To create construction industry pallets, an estimated 6,000 acres of forestry are harvested every year, with a further 236,000 acres grown to cater for future demand.

REMOVING NEEDLESS WASTE

Currently the vast majority of pallets circulating in the UK construction sector are cost engineered for single use – working on the assumption that they’ll probably be scrapped or skipped once they reach their final destination. This practice is clearly unsustainable. Across business there is a general consensus that linear ways of working are broken, and that waste is a design flaw.

DIFFERENT BY DESIGN

The Pallet LOOP delivers an alternative approach to single use pallets that’s better for business and better for the planet. Our simple, carbon net zero, returnable pallet scheme challenges existing ‘unsustainable’ supply chain practices; promotes a culture of re-use; and provides the UK construction sector with a greener, leaner, most cost effective way to transport building materials that can positively impact on people, planet and profitability.
