Nordiko

The use of untreated timber in packaging may cause unnecessary delays and additional costs to the Importer. It is suggested that all wooden packaging material, including cases, pallets, crates, skids or pallet cartons with wooden skids be made from treated timber or the consignment fumigated before shipment.

Nordiko is an established business with expertise in the improvement of air quality to meet environmental and occupational health and safety standards.

Nordiko provides a range of services including Ventilation, Recapture, Turnkey Projects and Applications. The applications of Nordiko’s range of products can be used for the fumigation of a wide range of cargoes including timber, fruit, grain, and other agricultural produce for import and export as well as domestic needs.

The use of Methyl Bromide for fumigation of wooden pallets and packaging materials had increased substantially and would continue to grow following the introduction of standard 15 of the International Standards for Phytosanitary Measures (ISPM) in early 2004. Parties were invited to monitor that increased use.
