Increasing Our Pallet Lifespan

MEXICO (2024)

In a move to replace our current stock of wooden pallets, Penguin Random House has purchased 8,295 recycled plastic pallets for our Mexico distribution center since 2023. Wooden pallets have a lifespan of 3 months, which is almost considered single-use, and for every 10 wooden pallets made, one tree with a lifespan of 10-15 years is cut down. Our recycled plastic pallets, in contrast, have a lifespan of 8-10 years.
