BRAPS-Forum 2023


On 20.10.2023 (9.00-12.00) the BRAPS Forum 2023 will take place as a virtual conference.

BRAPS (Belt and road Action of Pallet Sharing) is the joint project of EPAL and the Chinese logistics association CFLP to promote the use of standardised pallets in the movement of goods between Asia and Europe.

At the BRAPS Forum 2023, representatives from Asia and Europe will report on current issues related to the use of pallets and other packaging in the movement of goods between Asia and Europe. On the part of EPAL, the topics of digitalisation and PPWR (Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation) will take centre stage with up-to-date information on the new EPAL Euro pallet with QR code and on the significance of PPWR for the international supply chains.
