Compressed wood pallets — also called molded wood pallets or presswood pallets — are manufactured from recycled wood fiber bonded under high heat and pressure. They are permanently exempt from ISPM 15 fumigation requirements and are accepted at customs in the EU, USA, Australia, Canada, Japan, South Korea, and most major importing countries without fumigation documentation.
Why Buyers Choose Compressed Wood Pallets for Export
- No fumigation, ever: Manufacturing at 180–220°C classifies the pallet as processed wood — outside ISPM 15 scope. No treatment certificate, no IPPC stamp
- Lighter than solid wood: 6–32KG depending on size — reduces gross cargo weight and freight cost
- ±1mm precision tolerance: Stable stacking, compatible with automated conveyor systems
- No nails or screws: Zero cargo packaging damage risk
- Formaldehyde-free MDI resin: Suitable for food, pharma, and consumer goods export

FAQs
What is the difference between compressed wood pallets and heat-treated wood pallets?
Heat-treated solid wood pallets require IPPC certification and fumigation documentation. Compressed wood pallets are classified as processed wood — outside ISPM 15 — and require only a Material Declaration. No treatment certificate, no IPPC stamp.
Are crushed wood pallet and presswood pallet the same thing?
Yes. Compressed wood pallet, molded wood pallet, presswood pallet, pressed wood pallet, and engineered wood pallet all refer to the same product: pallets from wood fiber bonded under heat and pressure.
