F.A.Q.-Diamond Forest Resources

At Diamond Forest we receive many questions concerning our products or services. Please feel free to contact us if your question is not listed below or you wish to speak to a representative.

Q: What are the advantages of wooden pallets vs. plastic 
     or metal pallets?
A: Wood is the only renewable resource and is very 
     environmentally friendly. It has a good strength-to-weight
     ratio and is easily constructed. Another advantage is 
     that wood can be coated to be moisture resistant, fire-
     retardant and anti-abrasive. Wooden Pallets are also 
     much lighter than metal pallets and do not emit the toxic 
     fumes that plastic emits when burned. Remember the 
     three R's of wood: Renewable, Repairable and 
     Recyclable.
