Robert Holliger confirmed as President of EPAL
In addition, the following countries are currently represented on the EPAL Board: The Baltic countries (Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia), Germany, France, Italy, Poland, Portugal, Switzerland, Spain, the United Kingdom and Ireland. With the re-election of Robert Holliger, the successful work of EPAL and the continuous expansion of the largest open pallet pool will be continued. Robert Holliger has accompanied EPAL from the beginning, many years as Vice President and since 2010 as President of the umbrella organization of licensed producers and repairers of EPAL load carriers. Under Robert Holliger's presidency, the "EPAL in an oval" brand became what it is today. Over 450 million EPAL pallets are currently available to global logistics networks in the largest open pallet exchange pool. Production and repair figures continue to rise: In 2015, the 100 million mark in production and repair was exceeded for the first time.
In addition, cooperation with users was intensified and global market penetration increased. This also includes the establishment of the new National Committee in the Czech and Slovak Republics in October 2015 and the expansion of networks in the Middle East and Asia. The focus of the next three years of Robert Holliger's presidency will include combating EPAL pallet counterfeiting. red
