At its new £5m anaerobic digestion (AD) plant in South Wales, InSource Energy projects director, Justin Strutt needed suitable containers for handling factory food waste. Already in use at the food factory were plastic pallet boxes made by Dolav (UK).

He inspected them to see if they would meet requirements. “Our Dolavs are turned upside down on rotating forks to be emptied so we liked the strength of their sturdy, integral one-piece runner and ordered the 3-runner, Ace 1000 plastic pallet boxes from Dolav Direct UK,” said Justin Strutt. He confirmed the new Dolavs are already hard at work doing exactly as planned and added, “We did look at another cheaper pallet box but its runners were made separately, riveted in place and just not strong enough.”
