Green supply chain management has become a critical topic of discussion in recent years, as more businesses strive to incorporate environmentally responsible practices into their supply chain operations. For instance, according to the recent European Logistics Supply Chain Sustainability Report, four in five companies have said that reducing carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in the next five years is a key focus area. This approach not only showcases a company’s green credentials, but it can also help to reduce costs in the long run. As a new study revealed that Earth is on track to exceed 1.5C warming in the next decade, green supply chains are becoming increasingly important as customers, investors, and governments become more conscious of the impact of business practices on the environment. Companies that invest in green initiatives will not only demonstrate their commitment to a brighter future for generations to come, but they will also benefit from improved efficiency and enhanced reputation, according to goplasticpallets.com.

Expanding into new global markets, Rack Collapse Prevention’s unique racking safety system is installed in warehouses and storage facilities across Britain, Ireland, Europe, and the Western Hemisphere. Manufactured in the UK, Rack Collapse Prevention’s safety system is exceptionally durable and unlike other racking safety systems supports from the top instead of reinforcing from the bottom and is designed for any facility where pallet racking is used. Wire cables are suspended from the building’s steel structure and attached to each individual rack leg.
Wessex Packaging’s WRAPIDO® nano hand pallet wrap dispenser is the smart way to wrap a pallet. Smooth, speedy and sturdy, the dispenser allows you to walk forwards around the pallet, holding the lightweight dispenser easily in one hand. As the dispenser is approx 25% lighter than most similar products, it makes life easier and much more ergonomic if you are wrapping pallets on a regular basis in your warehouse or distribution centre.
As more and more pallets are dispensed throughout the industry, we hope companies invest in green initiatives to make the supply chain as environmentally friendly as possible.
