A few years ago, PDS even received a nod from the USDA BioPreferred Program®, certifying that PDS meets the strict requirements of the USDA program and allows PDS-users into the program.
Today, PDS software is known as the international standard of pallet design. Since 2018, PDS has added several new languages to its user interface, along with
20 new international wood species. The ability to use PDS in Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish or Swedish, along with regional sourcing for design and print specifications of wood packaging, has dramatically increased the efficiency of pallet production and workforces, at the global level.
PDS helps with pallet production by taking away the guesswork out of the deck board placement on a custom pallet, which significantly helps in the quality control phase.
Customers see a significant reduction in product damage and increased safety throughout the unit load handling system.
The Pallet Design Systemâ„¢ (PDS) helps with overall pallet performance so that goods can continue to move around the world, safely and sustainably. PDS is just one project of the Pallet Foundation.
