Landscape Mulch & Animal Bedding

"Wood is a natural product. Pallets are a byproduct using wood that is strong and durable, but discarded by furniture and home builders for cosmetic purposes. More than 1.2 billion wood pallets are in service every day in the United States. When these wood pallets can no longer be repaired to a standard that ensures protection of the goods being shipped and safety of workers handling the load, the pallets are recycled into a new products such as landscape mulch, animal bedding, boiler fuel, firewood and wood stove pellets. The nails from ground pallet chips are removed through a variety of collection technologies and sold as scrap metal to be used again --cradle to grave wood pallets are the sustainable choice for those in the supply chain who are concerned about preserving our environment by using natural products like wood." -- referenced from www.PalletCentral.com, a publication of the NWPCA (National Wooden Pallet and Container Association)
