SCOTT Pallets is celebrating after being shortlisted alongside The Pallet LOOP for a supply chain industry award.
The two companies, both part of BSW Group, are jointly in contention for the Sustainable Materials Award at the 2025 Supply Chain Excellence Awards. The awards recognise organisations that demonstrate best practice in supply chain operations across the UK and Europe.
Scott Pallets champions the use of reusable timber pallets. The company operates a nationwide pallet recovery service, working with customers and retailers across different industry sectors to collect, repair, and reintroduce pallets into supply chains.
The firm is the delivery partner of The Pallet LOOP, a circular pallet reuse scheme for the UK construction sector. Operational since May 2024, The Pallet LOOP moves products for some of the biggest names in UK construction including British Gypsum, Isover, Wienerberger, and Superglass, and collects pallets back from major contractors, housebuilders, and builders’ merchants.
Robert Blaikie, commercial director at Scott Pallets, said, “We are delighted to be shortlisted alongside The Pallet LOOP for this award, which recognises the progress we’re making in creating a more circular future in the pallet industry. From recovering and reusing pallets nationwide to partnering on innovative schemes such as The Pallet LOOP, we’re challenging the status quo.
“Being recognised in this way reinforces what we know: reducing waste and conserving resources is vital for the environment but can also deliver real economic and operational value across supply chains – regardless of industry or complexity.”
