California regulatory context

Central Valley agricultural packers in Bakersfield, Fresno, and Modesto require USDA-compliant phytosanitary documentation for export-bound produce; we maintain seasonal inventory at Stockton and Bakersfield distribution yards.

California Air Resources Board (CARB) Phase 2 formaldehyde rule restricts composite wood components; our solid hardwood pallets are CARB-exempt and ship with documentation for LA, Long Beach, and Oakland port shipments.

Pallet specification detail

Block pallets (four-way entry) use nine 4-inch hardwood blocks with continuous-face top deck; ideal for ASRS (automated storage and retrieval) and AGV (automated guided vehicle) operations where stringer interruptions cause read-failures.
