Carl McInerney, country director, IPP Logipal UK & Ireland, part of Pooling Partners, commented that his not only reflects the rising demand for smart pallet solutions but also the company's concerted focus on exceeding customers' service expectations.

He says: "Our team has earned a strong reputation for customer service excellence, backed by awards won last year, and it has established win/win relationships with customers. This has resulted in more customers using Pooling Partners' services than ever before.

"Pooling Partners has continued to invest in its dense pooling network for the collection and supply of pallets in order to reduce transport miles: a corporate social responsibility target we share with our customers.

"Pallet pool investment has been significant with more than one million new pallets produced and added to stock last year. In the UK, the repair facilities have also been expanded to ensure high pool pallet quality throughout the pallet lifecycle."
