European pallets

In Europe, the EURO pallet, also called a CEN pallet, is widely used in many industries. It measures 800 by 1200 by 144 mm. Manufacturers of EURO pallets must be sanctioned by the European Pallet Association (EPAL), which governs the smallest details, even which types of nails and lumber may be used. The strict standardization is based on the existence of Europol pallet swap organizations - their mutual swap agreements across country boundaries does only include EURO pallets of a specific EPAL/EUR type (mostly restricted to type 1). Most freight forwarders will accept pool pallets, handling the cost clearing between sender and receiver even for international transport to countries that takes part in the Europol system. The ongoing harmonization of freight handling within the European Economic Area has led to a decline of the Europol system. The EURO pallet does not fit efficiently within the ISO shipping container and slightly wider containers are often used for this reason.
The four common sizes of EURO pallets (alongside with ISO alternative sizes) are:
