Borate Treatment

Pal-a-Gaurd Brand Insect Protected Pallets

Penn Pallet uses a specialized dip tank to apply our patented Pal-A-Gaurd™ borate treatment, with a moldicide/fungicide additive, to pallets. Boric acid, oxides and salts (borates) are effective wood preservatives. Borate treated wood is of low toxicity to humans and animals, and does not contain copper or other heavy metals.

Borates protect against various forms of wood destroying organisms, including decay fungi (wet and dry rot), wood boring beetles (including common furniture, house longhorn and powderpost beetles), carpenter ants, and termites (including Formosan termites). Moldicides and fungicides aid in the control of mold growth.

Heat Treatment

Heat treater

By heating timber to a certain temperature, it is possible to eliminate the presence of pests found in wood. Heat treating is also an alternative to chemical preservatives, as many consumers would prefer chemical-free timber preservation methods.

PRL 11466

Heat treatment can also improve the properties of the wood with respect to water: lower equilibrium moisture, less moisture deformation, and weather resistance.

Penn Pallet's heat treatment process is certified to the ISPM 15 standard for wooden pallets and shipping containers.
