Gulf Warehousing Company (GWC) has entered into an exclusive agreement with EMTETE Middle East for carton board as well as a variety of other transport packaging material. The most prominent of the products is the ‘APPA pallet’ (automatic paper pallet assembly), uniquely made out of strengthened and fully-recyclable carton board. These pallets can replace the conventional wooden pallets for transport/export requirements as they are light, durable and more cost-effective than their wooden predecessors. APPA technology can help producers to meet the global and ‘ rapidly increasing need for ecological transport pallets and packaging materials. “We are very happy to partner with EMTETE and believe that there is a growing market need for APPA pallets in Qatar. APPA pallets are ideal for export shipments as they are ISPM-15 compliant and need no treatment as wood does,” said GWC Group CEO Ranjeev Menon. “We believe we have found the right partner to carry the product to the Qatar market. The market for carton pallets grows exponentially once local production, quality, competitiveness and delivery reliability have been established,” elaborated EMTETE CEO Aiman al-Shehabi
