Published:  19 May, 2016

In support of the CILT’s 2016 European Supply Chain Day, Goplasticpallets.com and Goplasticboxes.com created two infographics to educate logistics professionals about the significant cost savings they can achieve by switching to returnable plastic pallets and boxes.

Jim Hardisty, Managing Director of the companies, said: "By backing European Supply Chain Day, we hope to help raise awareness of the logistics and supply chain profession, which in my opinion deserves a lot more recognition.
