In some cases, we may use cookies to collect personal information, or information that becomes personal information if we combine it with other information.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit any website.  Cookies are widely used by website owners to make their websites work or to work more efficiently as well as to provide reporting information.

The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognize your computer both when it visits the website in question and when it visits certain other websites.

Why do we use cookies?

We use first-party cookies and third-party cookies for several reasons.  Some cookies are required for technical reasons for our Websites to operate, and we refer to these as “essential” or “strictly necessary” cookies.  Other cookies also enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our Websites.  Third-parties may serve cookies through our Websites for advertising, analytics, and other purposes.  This is described in more detail below.

What about other tracking technologies, like web beacons?

Cookies are not the only way to recognize or track visitors to a website.  Pages of our Websites and our emails may contain small electronic files known as web beacons (also referred to as clear gifs, pixel tags, and single-pixel gifs) that permit the Company, for example, to count users who have visited those pages or opened an email and for other related website statistics (for example, recording the popularity of certain website content and verifying system and server integrity). In many instances, these technologies are reliant on cookies to function properly, and so declining cookies may impair their functionality.

FAQs

How is an EcoLife™ Pallet different from normal wood pallets?

Our EcoLife™ Pallet utilizes a one of a kind, patent pending spray technology that once applied creates a stronger more durable surface than that of a plain wooden pallet.

What is the shelf life of EcoX™ Pallets?

With regular use our pallets are built to last upwards of a maximum of 15 years and a minimum of 5-7 under normal conditions.

Are the pallets prone to contamination?

The EcoAir™ and EcoLife™ pallets are both hermatically sealed resulting in a surface that is non-porous as well as water, chemical, and bacteria resistant.

What is the technology used on the EcoX™ pallet?

Our patent pending spray technology has been developed with multiple benefits for both the pallet’s structure and the user.

Is the patent pending spray material non-toxic?

Yes! All testing data is available upon your request.

How is the EcoLife™ pallet sustainable?

EcoLife™ pallets eliminate the need for the cutting of new trees as they are created from upcycled wood and can be recycled themselves. The quality of the pallet ensures that each can also be reused and repaired. Once our patent pending spray is applied to the wood it becomes 10X’s stronger and more durable and therefore longer lasting. The CO2 emission in comparison to a typical chemically treated wood and hard plastic pallets is virtually zero. It releases no CO2 or other harmful gasses during its manufacturing process or lifetime. It is also free from solvents, contains no plasticizers or PFAS, and contains no volatile organic compounds. Also no materials from this particular pallet end up in a landfill.

Are your pallets biodegradable?

The EcoLife™ pallet in particular is a pallet with a circular economy, which means that this particular pallet does not have waste that ends up in a landfill. During the production of the EcoLife™ Pallet, we use renewable sources and ensure waste production is minimized. “Reuse, reduce, recycle and repair” are the words we live by. This pallet happily never needs to be sent to a landfill.

Plastic pallets are also recyclable too, so what’s the difference?

Plastic accounts for 3.4% of global greenhouse gas emissions and globally only 9% of plastics are able to be recycled. Eco Pallet is responsible for recycling its materials and helps ensure a greener planet.

How can I recycle my EcoAir™ pallets?

The two best methods are through re-creating the original EPS by heating and reforming or by simply re-purposing the material into other products.
