The upcoming IntraLogisteX and Robotics & Automation Exhibition at the NEC in Birmingham is definitely a highlight in the logistics industry’s calendar and one event I’m genuinely excited about attending this year. If you’re planning to be at the NEC in Birmingham this March, we would be delighted to meet you.
Across the logistics and supply chain industries, the choice of pallet material can significantly impact operational efficiency and cost-effectiveness. Plastic pallets, known for their durability, have a typical lifespan of eight to ten years, comfortably outlasting wooden pallets, which will only last three to five years.
In a commendable step towards sustainable business practices, the Rotom Group has recently been awarded the prestigious EcoVadis Silver Certification. This globally recognised achievement highlights the group’s dedication to environmental, social, and ethical sustainability.
Rotom Europe has taken another step towards becoming the leading European provider of sustainable load carrier solutions following the acquisition of Englmeier Paletten & Verpackungen, headquartered in Hengersberg, Bavaria.

As the Managing Director of goplasticpallets.com, I feel compelled to share my thoughts on the Chancellor of the Exchequer’s Autumn Statement on Wednesday 22 November, which included a rise in the Plastic Packaging Tax (PPT). This tax, initially set at £200 per tonne, was increased to £210.82 per tonne on 1st April 2023, and will now see a further increase to £217.85 per tonne from 1st April 2024.
We at goplasticpallets.com had anticipated an increase, so the news does not come as a surprise. However, the necessity and impact of this tax hike does warrant a deeper discussion.
The Plastic Packaging Tax (PPT) was dreamt up with good intentions as a policy lever to change behaviours around single-use plastics and encourage the use of recycled plastic instead of new plastic within packaging. The harmful impact of single-use plastics on the environment has been extensively reported for all to see. Something had to change.
