Ensure Safe and Compliant International Shipping with ISPM 15 Heat Treatment
At Crates of Las Vegas, we understand the importance of secure and compliant international shipping. That’s why we offer ISPM 15 heat treatment services to ensure your wooden crates meet international phytosanitary regulations.
What is ISPM 15?
ISPM 15 is an International Standard for Phytosanitary Measures set by the International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC). It aims to prevent the spread of pests and diseases through the regulation of wood packaging materials used in international trade.
Why is ISPM 15 Heat Treatment Important?
Heat treatment is a crucial step in the ISPM 15 compliance process. It involves raising the core temperature of wood packaging to a specific level for a set duration, eliminating any potential wood-boring insects or pests. This ensures the safe passage of your goods across borders without the risk of introducing harmful organisms.
