In a fully developed pallet pool, pallets are used to transfer goods throughout the supply chain with minimal manual handling of products. Standard pallets are used all the way through from factory to retail store, and in some cases they are used as part of in-store product storage and display. As the product flows through the supply chain, pallets are transferred from one participant’s account to the next in a true user-pays arrangement. Ultimate responsibility for ensuring pallets are in optimum condition lies with Loscam, and clients use our Loscam Online to record the movement of pallets.
Benefits of pallet pooling include:
- No Capital Investment
- Repair is Undertaken
- Quality Assurance
- Account Management
- Meeting Fluctuating Demand
- Environmentally Sustainable
Static Pooling
In the static pooling stage, customers can hire and de-hire pallets at any time according to their operational needs and seasonal fluctuation. Working with Loscam, customers can better control the movement of their pallets while reducing supply chain costs through our proprietary pooling system.
Exchange Pooling
Exchange or closed loop pooling adopts pallet pooling between manufacturers and warehouses or 3PLs. This is the 2nd stage prior reaching full palletisation of the supply chain. Palletised delivery addresses the rising supply chain and labour costs, and the need to increase the velocity of products from factories to customers, bringing the greatest cost savings including increased efficiency, reduced product damages and faster cycle times.
