CHEP, a global pallet- and container-pooling services provider based in Orlando, Fla., announced the launch of a Web site that shows the impact of shipping platform choices on the environment and supply chain. The Web site, www.chep.com/onepallet, allows companies to calculate specific environmental improvements related to use of the CHEP pallet pool.

Calculations include reductions related to solid waste, greenhouse gas emissions and energy consumption. The site also shows how shipping platform selection affects transportation and procurement costs, product damage and product-handling productivity, CHEP said.
