ISPM 15-Compliant Packaging and IPPC Crates for Export

ISPM 15-Compliant Packaging and IPPC Crates for Global Export Shipping

In international shipping, protecting wood packaging against pests is a critical requirement. That is exactly why the ISPM 15 standard (International Standards for Phytosanitary Measures No. 15) was introduced. It is a globally recognized regulation governing the treatment of wood packaging materials in international trade. In practice, this means that all wooden components must be heat treated (HT) and properly marked before export.

The IPPC mark (in accordance with the International Plant Protection Convention) indicates that the wood has been properly treated and is recognized worldwide. This marking is mandatory for all wood packaging exported outside the EU, especially to regions such as North America, Asia, Australia, or South America. Packaging without this marking is not accepted by many customs authorities.

Heat treatment (HT) means that the wood was heated to a core temperature of at least 56 °C for at least 30 minutes. This process effectively eliminates insects, larvae, and other wood pests, fully meeting the requirements of the ISPM 15 standard. After successful treatment, the wood is marked accordingly and is then approved for global export.

IPPC / ISPM 15-Compliant Export Packaging for Trouble-Free Customs Clearance Worldwide

At Stavounie-Packaging, we supply all wooden packaging with IPPC / ISPM 15 certification as standard. Thanks to our in-house heat treatment and drying facilities, we meet all legal requirements for global shipping – reliably, certified, and with fully traceable documentation.

We manufacture packaging with IPPC / ISPM 15 certification for global export, including to regions with specific requirements related to ecology, transport conditions, or moisture protection (e.g., the USA and Canada, Australia, Asia, South America, etc.)

Do you need to export goods to a customs-sensitive country outside Europe? We produce packaging specifically designed to meet complex customs regulations – optionally with customs-access inspection windows, GPS monitoring during transport, or even entirely without solid wood (e.g., using plywood), ensuring smooth customs clearance and safe entry into the destination country.

Our many years of experience and in-house infrastructure enable us to provide efficient, standard-compliant, and cost-effective packaging solutions for any export requirement. Thanks to our mobile packaging teams, we also offer packaging, securing, and preparation of industrial goods for dispatch directly at your premises.
