Chatham, New Jersey – September 23, 2015 – Supply Chain operations looking to remove wood from the supply chain will find a sustainable, highly efficient and affordable alternative to traditional pallets in the RM2 USA booth (S6756) at PACK Expo, to be held September 28-30 at Las Vegas Convention Center. RM2 will introduce the Total Pallet Solution, a reimagined pallet built to withstand maximum weight and wide ranging temperatures that is tracked by an equipment tracking system.

“At PACK Expo, we are displaying our BLOCKPal pallet, which provides the supply chain the combination of economic savings, performance handling, and life cycle benefits. These benefits improve operations while driving efficiency and reducing environmental waste for our customers,” indicated David Kalan, RM2’s VP of Marketing and Business Development. “The pallet has been tested and studied to eliminate the shortcomings of a traditional pallet,” says Kalan. “The BLOCKPal is engineered to ensure it performs to the same standards that are held within warehouses.”

The BLOCKPal is available in all standard industry sizes and is a reusable, non-porous and rackable pallet. The edge strength exceeds industry standards; its racking load is measured at 6,500 lbs, with a static load of 60,000 lbs. and dynamic at 9,800 lbs., and is capable of withstanding temperatures from -40° F to 176° F. The BLOCKPal is designed for use in supply chains where high volume traffic levels or demanding operating environments is the norm. It’s applicable across many business segments including Pharmaceutical, Packaging, Heavy Industry and Fast Moving Consumer Goods, as well as automated storage and retrieval systems. “The Total Pallet Solution is economical for any company,” said Kalan. “Here at RM2, we work with our clients to create a powerful economic model that will generate significant cost savings for them.”

To minimize pallet loss, each BLOCKPal is tracked by the asset management system ERICA. With the data from ERICA, RM2 identifies areas of risk within the supply chain, correspondently reducing the number of replacement pallets that would otherwise have to be manufactured. In addition to the Total Pallet Solution, ERICA can monitor returnable assets
and equipment use, regardless of the supplier. RM2’s philosophy maintains focus on sustainability and driving increase profitability for companies.
“Our goal is to minimize costs and increase sustainability advantages, and ERICA makes that a reality,” informs Kalan.

RM2 products are manufactured with sustainability goals in mind. By implementing the total pallet solution, it can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 21% or more. Using widely accepted modelling methodologies, RM2’s sustainability has been validated by independent peer review analysis. “I invite anyone considering making the switch from wood pallets to stop by our booth to realize how incredible our pallets are, and how affordable our rental and lease programs can be,” sums up Kalan. “The benefits of the BLOCKPal, combined with our rental program, will help companies reach their supply chain goals while saving money, which is our goal.”
