The IPC Tray Pool is a shared pool of standard and durable plastic trays used to transport international letter mail. It has a unique “one size fits all” design and can carry P and G, C5, C6 and C4 mail, ensuring high fill rates and minimising the need for other types of containers. The IPC Tray Pool makes transport of international priority mail easy, effective, and low-cost.
By using the IPC tray, a standardised durable plastic tray, as a shared asset operated in a Pool managed by IPC, the participating posts have year after year obtained substantial savings in purchasing, repatriating and handling the empty equipment as well as in the processing and cross border transport of their letter mail.
