Heat Treating Pallets

How Long Does it Take to Heat Treat Pallets?

We heat treat two to three loads of pallets a day in our kiln.  Loads take about two and a half hours to cook during the warmer months and up to four hours during the winter months.  Heat treating is done to kill any bugs that are in the pallets before they are shipped internationally.  Because of the extra step in the production process we ask for  a little more lead time when ordering heat treated pallets.
