Why RECALO
The real cost of a load carrier isn't its price — it's everything after.
The true cost of transport packaging goes far beyond transportation — tied-up capital, administrative overhead, cleaning, repairs, return trips, lost units and waste, all distracting you from your core business. RECALO runs the entire reusable load-carrier loop for you — provided, returned, cleaned, repaired and RFID-tracked — so you manage products, not packaging.
The hidden price
The purchase price is the smallest number.
How load carriers circulate today drives cost and waste far beyond the sticker price — here is the scale.
packaging waste per EU inhabitant per year
Peak 2021 — single-use packaging is a growing cost block, not a fixed cost.
more EU packaging waste by 2030 — without action
European Commission projection (plastic even +46 %). Exactly what the PPWR — and reuse — address.

The honest comparison
The real comparison isn't unit price — it's total cost and reliability.
Where single-use looks cheap per trip and your own pool feels like control, both hand the capital, overhead and risk back to you. Smart pooling removes the spend on acquisition, administration, repair and cleaning — RECALO’s Return on Reliability.
