Greenhouse Gas Calculator
Your company can help reduce greenhouse gas emissions by switching from pooled wood pallets to 100% recyclable plastic pallets from iGPS. The iGPS pallet’s lifespan is about four times longer than wood, and it’s much lighter weight combined with transportation miles saved through the extensive iGPS network significantly reduces fuel usage and carbon emissions. It’s a great choice for a more sustainable supply chain.
