Biofiba the logical Environmental facts solution The Wall Street Journal took wooden pallets to task in a front-page article titled. “Old Pallets Pile Up and Critics Hammer Them as the new Eco-Menace”. Peter Anderson wrote, “Wooden pallets are multiplying and burying parking lots, snarling traffic and filling landfill and experts believe there are six timber pallets lurking in the US for every person”. Research estimated that 12. 16 million tons of wood pallets entered municipal waste landfills annually. In an article published in the Sydney Morning Herald (7 th October 2009) Malcolm Maiden reported that 50% of the USA pallet market is taken up by cheap timber pallets that are used for one journey, and then discarded into landfill USA House Bill 1465 now bans the disposal of wooden pallets in municipal solid waste landfills as of Oct. 1, 2009.
Biofiba the logical Environmental facts solution The pallet industry has begun to promote green initiatives and environmental claims are arising everywhere. A recent the State of Green Business study conducted by Price Waterhouse found that of 1, 753 environmental claims researched all but one were either false or misleading. “These claims do not take into account that plastic begins its life in an oil well, gets transported in an oil tanker like the Exxon Valdez and, according to the EPA, plastic production plants have a heavy carbon footprint. ” Plastic pallets need to meet necessary fire retardant standards and in doing so the chemical, deca-bromine is used. The US FDA recently issued a warning that this chemical is carcinogenic and can leach into the food supply from the pallets carrying the cargo.
