Sustainability

icon_grn_sutainablityGreen Ox® Pallet Technology significantly reduces the environmental footprint of a company.

In addition to providing savings throughout the supply chain and solving critical business challenges, Green Ox Pallet Technology also advances environmental and sustainability objectives.

Because Green Ox Corrugated Pallets weigh less and are partially made from recycled materials, they reduce CO2 emissions throughout their lifecycle and reduce a company’s environmental footprint, making them “Tangibly Green.”

The amount of recycled paper used to make just 320 Green Ox Pallets SAVES(1):

  • 6 trees
  • 70 gallons of gasoline
  • 1.4 cubic yards of landfill space
  • 2,463 kilowatts of energy
  • 3,000 gallons of water

In addition to saving critical environmental resources, Green Ox Pallets are estimated to reduce CO2 emissions up to 85% compared to wood pallets(2).
