Here at Conquest Joinery we supply Heat Treated wooden pallets to meet ISPM15 (International Standard for Phytosanitary Materials No. 15) regulations.
Your delivered wooden pallets will be stencilled with their “Heat Treatment Passport” and we will also provide a certificate confirming their Heat Treated status.
The stencil and certificate include a code depicting their country of origin, treatment code, unique registration number and the forestry commission logo.
Heat Treated wooden pallets that meet ISPM15 regulations are a legal requirement if you are exporting your product on wooden pallets to North America, Canada, Mexico, China, Korea, Australia, European Union and New Zealand. This regulation is in place to prevent the spread of wood boring insects crossing international borders.
ISPM15 (International Standard for Phytosanitary Measure No.15) is the internationally agreed standard for the treatment of all wooden pallets and packaging products made from solid wood. This Heat Treatment is necessary to eradicate any infestations held within the timber and is required to be carried out on all exported wooden goods to the countries stated above. An increasing number of countries are also requesting this Heat Treatment on imported goods and ISPM15 is the process to prove this treatment has been carried out. All our products that receive this treatment are fully certificated to aid passage through customs and to ensure our customers that the products you are receiving are of the highest quality.
The scope of ISPM15 is continuing to change and businesses using timber packaging must remain vigilant to avoid the risk of non-compliance. Please make sure that you receive the required certification when buying Heat Treated wooden pallets.

Wooden pallets generally require ISPM15 heat treatment when they are used to export goods internationally to countries that apply ISPM15 regulations. The standard is designed to reduce the risk of pests and diseases being transported between countries through solid wood packaging materials.
During the heat treatment process, the timber is heated to the required temperature for a specified period, helping eliminate potentially harmful organisms within the wood. Once successfully treated, compliant pallets can be marked with the recognised IPPC/ISPM15 mark, providing evidence that the timber packaging meets the required standard.
Requirements can vary depending on the destination and type of shipment, so if you’re unsure whether your pallets require heat treatment, speak to our team. We can help you determine the appropriate pallet specification for your export requirements.

ISPM15 pallets are wooden pallets that have been treated in accordance with the International Standard for Phytosanitary Measures No. 15. The standard helps reduce the risk of pests and diseases being transported between countries through solid wood packaging materials.
Compliant pallets are treated using an approved method and marked with the recognised IPPC mark to demonstrate that the required treatment has been completed.
ISPM15 compliant wooden pallets are commonly required when exporting goods internationally using solid wood packaging. Requirements depend on the destination country and the type of timber packaging being used.
If you’re unsure whether your shipment requires heat treated pallets, speak to our team about your destination and requirements.
During pallet heat treatment, the timber is placed within a specialist heat treatment chamber and heated under controlled conditions until the required ISPM15 treatment standard has been achieved.
Our on-site heat treatment facility enables us to manage this process directly, helping provide a reliable supply of compliant pallets for customers with international shipping requirements.
An ISPM15 compliant pallet should display the recognised IPPC mark. This identifies that the wood packaging has undergone an approved treatment and includes codes relating to the country, registered treatment provider and treatment method.
