Oak Creek Wood Products has announced its achievement of EPAL (European Pallet Association) 1 certification, making it the first U.S. manufacturer to receive this recognition. This development enables the company to expand its distribution into European markets and meet the demand for high-quality pallets.

The EPAL certification is a globally recognized standard that ensures compliance with stringent criteria for materials, dimensions, and construction methods in pallet manufacturing. Oak Creek Wood Products can now contribute to the global supply chain with products meeting these rigorous standards.

Rafael Guerrero, President and Owner of Oak Creek Wood Products, stated, “We are honored to achieve this certification and join the ranks of EPAL-certified manufacturers.” He added, “We look forward to serving the diverse needs of industries across Europe and contributing to the strength and reliability of international trade.”

The EPAL certification guarantees that Oak Creek Wood Products' pallets adhere to strict quality and safety standards, including dimensional accuracy, load-bearing capacity, and traceability. Each pallet is marked with the EPAL logo as a symbol of reliability.

This expansion into European markets allows Oak Creek Wood Products to reach new customers while continuing its commitment to innovation in the wood pallet industry. The company aims to exceed customer expectations while upholding high standards of quality and sustainability.
