Gyproc Introduces Payback Scheme For Pallet Returns

Gyproc, a market leader in plaster, plasterboard and drylining systems in Ireland, is proud to announce its partnership with The Pallet LOOP and CJ Sheeran, Ireland’s largest manufacturer and recycler of timber packaging and pallets. Together, they are expanding The Pallet LOOP offering to include Gyproc’s plasterboard and plaster pallets marking a significant step forward in sustainable construction logistics. As an added benefit customers can also receive up to €4 /£4 payback for each green pallet returned.

This collaboration is designed to reduce pallet waste, cut carbon emissions, and support circularity across the supply chain. It aligns with Gyproc’s commitment to achieving net zero carbon by 2050, as part of its broader sustainability roadmap focused on minimising waste, reusing materials, and reducing environmental impact at every stage of build.

“At Gyproc, sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. Our partnership with The Pallet LOOP and CJ Sheeran marks a major milestone in our journey toward a circular economy. By rethinking how we manage and reuse pallets, we’re not only reducing waste and carbon emissions, but also setting a new standard for responsible logistics in the construction sector.” said Kieran Holohan, Managing Director, Gyproc Ireland.

Beginning in November 2025, Gyproc will transition to distributing plaster and plasterboard products on distinctive green LOOP pallets, available in sizes 1200 x 2400 mm, 1200 x 2700 mm, 1200 x 3000 mm and 1020 x 1200mm. This follows Isover’s successful adoption of LOOP pallets for insulation products in December 2024. Designed for durability and repeated reuse, these pallets are equipped with RFID tracking and supported by a nationwide collection network. CJ Sheeran is a key partner in this circular logistics initiative, overseeing daily pallet collections through its 13 depots across Ireland and Northern Ireland. With a network of over 400 merchant partners and a logistics team boasting more than 20 years of experience, CJ Sheeran facilitates over 14,000 collections annually ensuring efficient, timely, and sustainable pallet recovery.

– Businesses receive a Payback of up to €4 /£4 per reuseable pallet, incentivising reuse and reducing skip disposal costs.
