Tosca and Cabka launch recycled plastic euro pallet to replace wood
Reusable packaging pooler Tosca and recycled plastics manufacturer Cabka have introduced the CP1208, a recycled plastic euro-size pallet positioned as an alternative to wooden transport pallets. The pallet is 4 kg lighter than standard wood pallets of the same 1200 x 800 mm footprint and is designed for repair, reuse and recycling, with planned RFID tracking integration.
Why this mattersA plastic alternative to wooden pallets from two established reusable-packaging players signals continued displacement of single-use wood by durable, trackable circular assets.

- It weighs 4 kg less than a comparable wooden pallet.
- The pallet includes drainage holes and integrated deck grooves to lock crates in place.
- RFID integration is planned to improve supply-chain tracking visibility.
- The launch is positioned to help operators meet EU sustainability and hygiene regulations.
- Pricing versus standard wooden pallets was not disclosed.
