Happy #EarthDay to all! We can honor our planet by imagining a system of perpetual material flows – a materials economy – where safe and healthy nutrients move easily from one application to another, avoiding even the thought of a landfill.

Rather than seeing materials as a waste management problem, #CradletoCradle is based on the closed-loop nutrient cycles in which there is no waste. Not just less waste or fewer negative effects, but more positive effects. #CircularEconomy

Brad Gething, Director of Science and Technology at @nwpca, spoke in Dr. Laszlo Horvath’s class, SBIO 4224 Pallets and Unit Loads. A big thank you to @nwpca for their support of CPULDs classes & research! #VT #CPULD #HandsOnHokies #Pallets #Sustainability #WoodProducts #NWPCA
I'm very proud to have been a part of this very important project.
It's here – the Environmental Product Declaration for wooden pallets in the U.S, certified by @uldialogue. Big thanks to UL, @forestservice and the Pallet Foundation for affirming wood as the go-to pallet for the supply chain. bit.ly/2IIB3cH #sustainability

Hot Off the Press!!! On Thursday, March 19, pallets were considered "Critical Infrastructure" according to the Department of Homeland Security. cisa.gov/publication/guidanc…
Thank you for recognizing the essential role wood pallet workers play in keeping the supply chain moving. Our products get whatever is needed, to wherever it is needed. #palletsmovetheworld
Today, @CISAgov released new Guidance for Essential Critical Infrastructure Workers as part of our effort to ensure the nation’s resilience to #coronavirus: cisa.gov/identifying-critica…

Thank you, Secretary Perdue. Pallets are critical infrastructure and are the blood cells of the US Body; transporting 94% of products. The industry will be critical, with others, when the recovery of this country takes place.
