ALEXANDRIA VA, August 8, 2017 – The National Wooden Pallet & Container Association (NWPCA) is excited to announce the development of new capabilities for PDS that provides user interface and print-out report materials in four additional languages: Spanish, French, Italian and German.
The commitment to incorporate additional languages further solidifies PDS as the global standard for unit load pallet design.

These specific language selections fit seamlessly with our rapid global expansion and future plans, while helping provide additional value to our diverse user-profile in North America.”
Shane Thompson, NWPCA’s Board Chair concurred, “NWPCA’s Board of Directors is investing heavily to expand the value of PDS to current licensees, and the multi-lingual functionality and report materials will be incredibly valuable to all of our users, no matter where they are located. These are exciting times for our users, as languages are just one part of the new features coming to PDS in 2017 and 2018.”
