PALLITE®’s COVID-19 Statement

We at PALLITE® want to reassure our loyal customers and stakeholders that we are doing our utmost to operate our business at full capacity, whilst keeping the health and safety of our workforce at the centre of everything we do.

In line with government guidelines we have made the following changes:

Increased hygiene measures on site

Restricted all internal and external visitors to site

Increased use of virtual meetings with our workforce, customers and suppliers

Ensured our workforce understand and follow the NHS guidelines for self-isolation

Worked with our raw material suppliers & hauliers to minimise risk of disruption

Increased social distancing in place at factory. Two-person jobs now single-person, only irrespective of any reduction in output

We are actively monitoring the situation and published guidance from the NHS, WHO and the government.

Our sales team remain available and willing to support our customers and their supply chains through these uncertain times.

We are currently operating ‘business as usual’ and are capable of shipping high volumes of standard products such as pallets and layer boards at short notice if needed.

Manufacturing

It all starts with paper.

We understand how important it is to minimise disruptions in your supply chain. We all know the impact that last minute interruptions can have further down the road when a single stage doesn’t go to plan. That’s why we extensively test our products and proactively carry out quality checks before anything enters or leaves our factory.

We perform quantitative quality checks on every reel of paper that enters our warehouse. Performing these tests ensures that any faults at this stage don’t enter the manufacturing process and ultimately end up in your supply chain, putting your goods – and your relationships with your customers – at risk.

OUR PAPER TESTS INCLUDE:

Visual check – paper fibre size, contamination to the paper and tears
Grammage of the paper
Thickness of the paper
Cobb rating – absorbency of the paper

We work with some of the leading paper manufacturers in the world, who also work to the highest quality standards.

If we create a specification that’s new or we’re testing a fresh, innovative idea, we’ll perform functionality testing and validation to guarantee the products are fit for purpose. This is either performed in house or by an accredited third party.

THESE TESTS CAN INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO:

Board deflection
Stress point testing
Load/weight validation
Manual handling within the supply chain
Best practice and usage of our range

PALLITE® Product Testing

Quality does not happen by accident. We don’t take it for granted, and neither do we expect you to accept our assurances of quality without independent, evidential proof.
