Non-compliant wood packaging material poses a serious risk to U.S. ports and agriculture.
Invasive pests hidden inside pallets, crates, and dunnage can have devastating consequences if released. To safeguard trade and natural resources, the USDA has approved a new method of phytosanitary treatment—mechanical destruction using shredders and hammermills. Schutte Hammermill played a critical role in developing and proving this process, and our equipment is nowspecified for use in USDA-approved systems for destroying wood packaging material at ports of entry and beyond.
What You’ll Learn in This White Paper:
- Why wood packaging material is one of the most common pest pathways in international trade.
- How the USDA Treatment Manual outlines shredding and hammermilling requirements for compliant destruction.
- Den rolle, som Schutte Hammermill-udstyr spillede i proof-of-concept-testning – og hvorfor det nu er specificeret i USDA-systemer.
- Hvordan ødelagt træemballage kan genbruges til muld, biomassebrændstof, eller råmateriale til nye paller.
