Italy Pallet Market Overview, 2029

The Italian pallet market is driven by the growing demand for pallets in the food and beverage, pharmaceutical, and retail industries. The increasing focus on sustainable packaging solutions and the adoption of automation technologies in the logistics sector are also expected to boost the demand for pallets in Italy. The trend towards sustainable packaging solutions is particularly strong in Italy, with a growing demand for pallets made from recycled materials or from wood sourced from sustainable forestry practices. The pallet market in Italy is a competitive and dynamic industry, with a focus on innovation and sustainability. Pallets are widely used in Italy, particularly in the industrial and logistics sectors. According to a report by the Italian Pallet Association (Associazione Italiana Pallet - AIP), the pallet market in Italy has grown steadily over the past few years.

According to the research report "Italy pallet Market Overview, 2029," published by Bonafide Research, the market is antiipated to grow with more than 6.77% CAGR by 2024-29. . The pallets market is divided into four categories: type, application, material, and end-user. The market is divided into four material categories: wood, plastic, Metal, Corrugated and Others. Rackable, stackable, and others are the different types. It is classified as rental or non-rental according on its application. End-user industries include food and beverage, chemical, retail, pharmaceutical, and others. By material, the wood segment led the pallets market in terms of revenue. Wood pallets are in high demand throughout a wide range of sectors, including logistics & transportation, building & construction, etc. The majority of pallets in use today are made of wood, and they are one of the main contributors to municipal solid garbage (MSW). Furthermore, discarded wooden pallets are high in energy, which is typically lost during MSW disposal. As a result, industries are already implementing recycling ways to decrease wood waste in pallet manufacture. When a wooden pallet is deteriorated to the point that restoration is no longer possible, it is time to recycle.

PALM was the first pallet firm in Italy to be certified for utilizing FSC and PEFC woods in 2001. These certificates are used to trace the origin of timber and verify the chain of custody that logs are sourced legally and sustainably. PALM employs only precut lumber, which contributes to the facility's cleanliness. Approximately 10% of the lumber is FSC certified, with the majority of the remaining being PEFC certified. The corporation does purchase some from a Hungarian supplier who is in the process of being certified. A lot of other pallet makers in Italy have followed PALM's lead and use predominantly certified timber. PALM has planted 120 hectares of trees in northern Italy, in addition to procuring from green suppliers, to help offset any environmental impact of the trees harvested. In addition, PALM collaborates with 720 local businesses to collect wood trash and guarantee it is properly disposed of and recycled.
