WPC Wooden Packaging Private Limited also provides fumigation services. Fumigation of
wood is a crucial process for ensuring compliance with international regulations and
preventing the spread of pests when exporting goods in wooden crates, pallets, and
dunnage. Fumigation involves the use of specific chemicals to eliminate or control pests that
may be present in the wood.
ISPM 15 Standard :
The International Standards for Phytosanitary Measures No. 15 (ISPM 15) is an international
standard established by the International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC). It outlines the
requirements for treating wooden packaging materials before they can be used for
international shipping. Fumigation is one of the approved methods for complying with ISPM
15.
Certification :
After fumigation, the treated wood is marked with an approved stamp or mark that indicates
compliance with ISPM 15. This mark provides evidence that the wood has been properly
treated and is safe for international shipping.
