Timber products we manufacture

Certified pallets, and European House Borer (EHB) certified pallets. We can provide:

  • Standard wooden pallets – the Australian standard pallet is 1165 x 1165mm.
  • Export certified & custom-made timber pallets – We can custom design and create timber pallets of various sizes and weight specifications with plantation pine. Pallets are available with either 2-way or 4-way entry.
  • Pine skid pallets – Timber skid pallets differ to a standard pallet as they have no bottom boards. Timber skids are the perfect option for transporting lightweight goods.
  • Euro pallets – The Euro standard pallet is 800 x 1200mm or 1000 x 1200mm, with 4 entry points for a forklift. This pallet is commonly used throughout Europe.
  • Branded pallets – Stencilled branding such as your logo can also be applied to timber pallets.
  • Manufacture & supply of supply pallet spare parts – We manufacture and supply pallet spare boards.
  • Second-hand pallets – Our supply of used pallets provide an affordable option to customers.

We manufacture high-quality, custom-made wooden crates and bins for customers in the fruit and vegetable industry, resources sector, wine industry, and beyond. 

We also produce wooden crates and bins suitable for storage purposes including spare parts at industrial sites and heavy-duty crates used for transport/shipping of machinery or other equipment.

We specialise in:

  • Industrial crates – the standard crate size is 1165 x 1165mm. Crates are available with or without a lid, gated and non-gated, of various heights and weight specifications. Crates can also be export-certified, suitable for use domestically and internationally.
  • Timber fruit and vegetable bins – fruit crates and bins are available for all types of produce from stone fruit to watermelons. We can help you to design the perfect wooden vegetable bin or fruit box for your needs.
  • Timber display crates – enhance the presentation of your products or provide easy-care storage with the natural, rustic look of plantation pine display cases and boxes.
  • Storage crates – wooden crates are a cost-effective solution to storing everything from industrial machinery to resources equipment.
  • Custom crates – we will work with you to develop a design to meet your specific bin and crate requirements.
  • Branded crates and bins – stencilled branding such as your logo can also be applied to all of our timber products.

We love giving anything that will help our supported employees grow their skills and interests a go. If you have an idea, run it past us to see how we can team up to make it come to life.

Quality standards and compliance

Timber products manufactured to comply with export requirements have been certified by The Australian Quarantine and Inspection Service. External audits are also conducted on our manufacturing sites on a 6-month basis to remain compliant with the AWPCS and European House Borer (EHB) standards.

The Australian Wood Packaging Certification Scheme for Export (AWPCS)

Developed by Australian Quarantine and Inspection Service, the AWPCS scheme aims to ensure that wood packaging manufacturers produce products and material that meet the requirements of the international standard ISPM 15. Under this program, timber can either be heat-treated or fumigated which ensures that timber products exported from Australia do not pose a biological risk to ecosystems in other countries.

AWPCS Certificate – Activ Bunbury

Timber products produced on this site have an internationally-recognised AWPCS stamp that recognises them as being compliant.

European House Borer (EHB)

Compliant timber for manufacture of Pinewood Pallets and Packaging (CA-PP)

All Activ timber manufacturing sites operate under the CA-PP certification scheme that enables all pinewood timber pallets and packaging manufactured under this arrangement to be certified free from EHB contamination. This allows products manufactured under this scheme to be moved out of Western Australia to other states.
