Export Packaging Update

Storing Wood Packaging Materials Outside
There  have been  many questions lately regarding whether treated WPM can be stored outside. There are currently no regulations in place restricting where treated WPM can be stored. However exposing WPM to the elements can create post treatment issues that are undesirable to customers. It is recommended that:  
  • The treated WPM be kept off the ground.
  • The surrounding area be treated by pest control professionals.
  • The ALSC regulation for keeping untreated products seperate from treated WPM be strictly enforced.
This will help to keep your ISPM 15 conforming WPM safe from undesirable pests.

  2. Wood packaging materials must be debarked prior to being heat treated or fumigated to meet ISPM 15 regulations.
