What Is an EPAL Euro Pallet?

An EPAL Euro pallet is a standardized reusable wooden pallet designed for use in European logistics.

According to the official EPAL load carrier specifications, the EPAL Euro pallet measures 800 × 1,200 × 144 mm and has a stated safe working load of 1,500 kg.

The standardized format allows compatible handling equipment, storage systems and transport operations to work around a consistent pallet footprint.

EPAL also publishes specifications for other load carriers, including EPAL 2, EPAL 3, half pallets and CP pallets.

For customers specifically requiring the standard EPAL Euro pallet, the exact pallet specification should be confirmed when ordering.

EPAL Pallet Dimensions Portugal

The standard EPAL Euro pallet has the following official specifications:

Specification	EPAL Euro Pallet
Length	1,200 mm
Width	800 mm
Height	144 mm
Safe working load	1,500 kg
Pallet type	Euro pallet
Material	Wood
Application	European logistics, storage and transport

These figures refer specifically to the EPAL Euro pallet specification published by EPAL.

Other Euro-style and industrial pallet formats can have different dimensions and load capacities. Therefore, customers should not assume that every 1200 × 800 mm wooden pallet has the same construction or load rating as an EPAL Euro pallet.

Why Use Euro EPAL Pallets?

Euro EPAL pallets are useful for businesses that require a standardized pallet footprint throughout their logistics operations.

Potential advantages include:

Standardized dimensions
Compatibility with common handling equipment
Suitable footprint for European logistics
Reusable pallet design
Recognized EPAL specification
Suitable for warehousing
Suitable for road transport
Suitable for distribution
Suitable for international logistics
Euro EPAL Pallets Portugal

For companies operating across multiple locations, standardization can make pallet handling and storage easier to manage.

The correct pallet should nevertheless be selected according to the actual load, storage method and handling conditions.

Euro Pallets for Warehousing

Warehouses often depend on standardized pallet dimensions to organize storage locations and handling routes.

The 800 × 1,200 mm EPAL Euro pallet footprint is widely used in European logistics. Its dimensions can be incorporated into warehouse layouts, transport planning and pallet storage systems.

Euro pallets can be suitable for:

Conventional warehouse storage
Floor stacking
Pallet racking where the pallet and rack configuration permit
Forklift handling
Pallet truck handling
Distribution operations
Cross-docking
Manufacturing storage
Euro EPAL Pallets Portugal

For racking applications, the actual pallet condition, load, support arrangement and rack configuration must be assessed. A pallet’s nominal load rating should not automatically be treated as a universal racking rating.

Euro EPAL Pallets for Manufacturing

Manufacturing companies use pallets to move raw materials, components, packaging and finished products.

Euro EPAL pallets can provide a standardized platform for moving goods between:

Production → Storage → Warehouse → Distribution → Customer

This can be particularly useful when different departments or logistics partners use compatible pallet-handling systems.

Palmal supplies Euro and EPAL pallet solutions for commercial manufacturing requirements throughout Portugal.

For heavier or non-standard loads, customers can also consider our Industrial Pallets range.

Euro EPAL Pallets for Transport and Distribution

Transport companies and distributors need pallet formats that can be handled efficiently during loading, unloading and storage.

The standard 800 × 1,200 mm Euro pallet footprint is commonly used throughout European supply chains.

Euro pallets can be integrated into operations involving:

Trucks
Warehouses
Distribution centres
Freight terminals
Manufacturing plants
Retail distribution
Logistics hubs

When ordering Euro pallets for regular distribution, customers should specify whether they require genuine EPAL pallets or another Euro-format pallet.

This distinction is important because a pallet can have Euro dimensions without necessarily being an EPAL pallet.

Genuine EPAL Pallets vs Euro-Format Pallets

The terms Euro pallet and EPAL pallet are sometimes used interchangeably, but they do not always mean exactly the same thing.

A pallet can be manufactured to an 800 × 1,200 mm Euro format without being an EPAL pallet.

Where a customer specifically requires an EPAL pallet, the product should meet the applicable EPAL requirements and markings.

The official EPAL website provides information about EPAL’s pallet specifications, load carriers and quality requirements.

For quotations, customers should clearly state whether they require:

Genuine EPAL Euro pallets
Standard Euro-format pallets
New pallets
Used pallets
Exchange pallets
Export pallets
A specific pallet condition or grade

This allows the required specification to be confirmed before supply.

New Euro EPAL Pallets Portugal

New Euro and EPAL pallets can be appropriate when businesses require consistent pallet condition for their logistics operations.

New pallets may be preferred for:

New pallet pools
Manufacturing
Distribution
Retail logistics
Export
Warehouse operations
Customer-facing shipments
Euro EPAL Pallets Portugal

The exact condition and certification requirement should be specified when requesting a quotation.

For customers who do not specifically require EPAL pallets, our New Wooden Pallets range provides additional options.

Used Euro EPAL Pallets Portugal

Used Euro and EPAL pallets can be suitable for companies looking for functional pallet solutions for appropriate applications.

The condition of used pallets can vary, so businesses should select pallets according to:

Load requirements
Intended number of uses
Handling method
Storage conditions
Appearance requirements
Export requirements

For general used pallet requirements, see our Used Wooden Pallets page.

If a shipment specifically requires an EPAL pallet, the required status and specification should be confirmed before purchase.

EPAL Pallets for Export from Portugal

Euro and EPAL pallets can be used in international logistics, but exporters should distinguish between pallet specifications and phytosanitary requirements.

ISPM 15 applies to regulated wood packaging material made from raw wood moving in international trade. The International Plant Protection Convention states that ISPM 15 establishes phytosanitary measures intended to reduce the risk of introduction and spread of quarantine pests associated with such wood packaging material.

The official IPPC ISPM 15 resources should be consulted for current international requirements.

For customers exporting goods from Portugal, Palmal can supply suitable Export Pallets and ISPM 15 Pallets where applicable.

The destination country’s requirements should always be confirmed before shipment because import rules and implementation requirements can vary.

EPAL Pallets and ISPM 15

EPAL status and ISPM 15 compliance are related to different aspects of a pallet.

EPAL concerns the pallet system, specifications and quality requirements.

ISPM 15 concerns phytosanitary requirements for regulated wood packaging material used in international trade.

Therefore, an exporter should consider both requirements when preparing an international shipment.

The IPPC’s official implementation resources explain that ISPM 15 covers the regulation of wood packaging material in international trade, including requirements related to treatment and marking.

If you are exporting from Portugal, tell us the destination country when requesting a quotation so the required pallet specification can be assessed.

Euro EPAL Pallets for European Logistics

For companies shipping goods throughout Europe, standardized pallet dimensions can help maintain consistency between suppliers, warehouses and customers.

Euro EPAL pallets can be used in supply chains involving:

Portugal
Spain
France
Germany
Belgium
Netherlands
Italy
Other European markets

Their standardized footprint can simplify palletized transport where compatible logistics systems are used.

For companies with regular international shipments, pallet selection should be coordinated with the receiving warehouse or logistics partner.
