Importante notice NORME NIMP 15
Date: 12/03/2010
Do you import on wooden pallets?
For autorisation in New Caldeonia, wooden pallets have to be issued of NIMP 15 norms.
In order to obtain this, pallets should be treated with Bromure ... or to be fumigated at 56 degrees during 30 minutes minimum.
Or
Starting 18th of March, Bromute treatment will be forbiden in Europe.
Therefore, all importers not having supplied normed pallets or not having required them from their suppliers, can't no longer proceed to fumigation, on the departure from Europe, in order to avoid further formalities.
In new Caledonia, for all cargo arriving from Europe, wooden pallets might not have NIMP 15 norme, and without stamping, the containet will be unloaded, and each pallet will require fumigation, and therefore an extracost.
This is why, starting now, for all new orders, the importance of NIMP 15 wooden pallets should be pointed out.
To lower your costs, some pallets can be chaper than others. You can also seek more informations about:
wooden chips
- board
- plastic
- used wooden pallets, or NIMP15 normed pallets
For those for whom is possible, please ask your supplier to deliver without pallet.
For delivery on pallet, please require to be normed NIMP15, so we can arrange fumigation within shortest delais and required costs.
DAVAR will be in charge of the file.
