used wood pallets

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.
  • 美国农业部(USDA)处理手册如何概述符合规定的销毁的粉碎和锤磨要求.
  • Schutte Hammermill 设备在概念验证测试中发挥的作用——以及为什么它现在被指定用于 USDA 系统.
  • 被销毁的木质包装材料如何被重新用于制作覆盖物, 生物质燃料, 或作为新托盘的原材料.
