FAQ - Iowa City Cold Chain Pallets
What documentation accompanies Cold Chain Pallets loads?
BOL, packing list, grade certifications standard. Heat-treated loads add IPPC stamps and ISPM-15 documentation. Pharma-grade loads add batch records. Food-grade loads add FSMA Sanitary Transportation Rule certifications. All documentation ships electronically before delivery. Heat-treated pallets carry the IPPC mark applied under a USDA APHIS registered heat-treatment program, and new 48x40 GMA stock is built to the NWPCA Uniform Standard, so receiving teams can match each load to its paperwork.
