Quick answer: An EPAL pallet is a euro pallet (1200 × 800 mm) built by a licensed producer and checked by independent inspectors. Only pallets with the EPAL mark can be swapped in the open EPAL exchange pool. FRAMPAL supplies new and used EPAL pallets in bulk from 100 pallets.

What makes a pallet an EPAL pallet?
The European Pallet Association (EPAL) was founded in 1991 to organise a quality-controlled, open pallet pool. Today around 670 million EPAL euro pallets are in circulation, built by more than 1,700 licensees. Every EPAL pallet follows the same drawing, uses the same wood and nail specifications, and is checked by independent inspection companies.
That shared standard is what makes exchange possible. When a truck delivers 33 EPAL pallets of goods, the receiver can hand back 33 empty EPAL pallets of comparable quality instead of paying for them. Unbranded pallets of the same size cannot be exchanged this way.
How to recognise a genuine EPAL pallet
- The EPAL oval on the left and right corner blocks of both long sides.
- The licence and production details on the centre block: producer code, year and month.
- A control clip or inspection mark on the centre block for new pallets.
- Since 2013, EPAL pallets carry the EPAL mark on the corner blocks instead of the old EUR mark.

EPAL quality classes
| Class | Condition | Typical use |
|---|---|---|
| New | Unused, bright wood, all markings | Automated warehouses, food, exports, pool entry |
| Class A | Used, bright wood, very few signs of use | Retail and consumer goods, exchange |
| Class B | Used, darker wood, signs of use, fully functional | Transport, storage and exchange when EPAL criteria and agreed acceptance are met |
| Class C | Used, functional but visibly worn | Transport, storage and exchange when EPAL criteria and agreed acceptance are met |
New EPAL pallets are heat-treated and marked. For used or repaired pallets, verify the markings, repair status and destination requirements before export.
When do you need EPAL?
Choose EPAL when your goods go to customers that run a pallet exchange, which is standard for most European supermarket chains, many distribution centres and logistics providers. In these flows, a delivery on unbranded pallets usually means losing the pallets or paying for replacements.
When is a standard euro pallet enough?
For one-way export, internal storage or customers who do not exchange pallets, an unbranded euro pallet or a reconditioned pallet is often cheaper. It has the same 1200 × 800 mm footprint and loads the same way.
