A Pallet Sustainability Case Study

Find Out How Magnetic Springs Boosted Sustainability and Efficiency

Your business has lots of different responsibilities-responsibilities to your employees, to your distributors, to your community, and to the environment.

Sometimes, these responsibilities can seem like they are competing with each other. But when it comes to choosing the right kind of shipping pallet, there’s no competition. Plastic pallets offer a solution that benefits the entire supply chain.

Magnetic Springs, a family-owned company located in Ohio, discovered these benefits for themselves. This regional distributor of bottled water, coffee, and tea supplies knew that they could do better than traditional wooden pallets. And when they made the switch to plastic, they discovered the difference. More than just a pallet sustainability case study, the Magnetic Springs story shows how plastic pallets made a difference at every level.

“For every 100,000 iGPS pallets that Magnetic ships, nearly 1,000 gallons of fuel are saved, and there is a reduction of more than 20,000 pounds of greenhouse emissions.”

Case Study for Pallet Sustainability

No matter what size your company is, you’re looking to improve your bottom line. Switching to plastic pallets is a simple step in that direction, and, as Magnetic Springs found out, it’s worth it.

Once Magnetic Springs switched from wood to iGPS plastic pallets, they quickly realized the benefits across the entire organization. Plastic pallets are:

Recyclable

Sustainable

Easier to stack and transport

Easier to clean and sanitize

Stronger and lighter than wood

Switching to sustainable plastic pallets was better for Magnetic Springs’ employees, better for their partners, and better for the planet. It has helped them more effectively meet the responsibilities they have set for themselves, and affirmed their commitment to a sustainable future.
