BARTOW, Fla. — UFP Packaging on Tuesday announced that its PalletOne business unit has completed an expansion into UFP operations nationwide, making PalletOne the first wholly owned coast-to-coast pallet supplier in the United States.
PalletOne automated manufacturing lines now are in more than 70 UFP Packaging facilities with an opportunity to add 20 more locations.
"We are implementing the growth plan for PalletOne, which is integral to our goal of being a leading packaging solution provider globally," said UFP Packaging President Scott Worthington. "This is an exciting time for our organization and for PalletOne, specifically."
"Our expansion allows us to progress toward providing nationwide pallet solutions supplied by UFP company owned facilities, " said PalletOne President Howe Q. Wallace. "This will allow us to better serve our customers and maintain our position as a leader in the industry."
Since its founding in 2001, PalletOne has been a leader in pallet manufacturing, offering a range of services, including custom pallet design, unit load consultation, heat treating and pallet recycling and repair programs to ensure maximum safety and effectiveness. UFP Packaging purchased PalletOne in 2020 and has since continued leveraging its pallet supply expertise to provide top-tier products and services to all its customers. This expansion will bring that same service to the entire country.
"Backed by the resources of UFP, our unmatched geographic breadth and extensive resources will allow us to adapt quickly to supply chain disruption and efficiently meet the growing demand of our multi-site customers," Wallace said.
