Stretch film or stretch wrap, is a highly stretchable plastic film used to wrap products and secure them on pallets. This versatile and cost-effective packaging material is essential for ensuring the safe transportation and storage of goods across various industries.
– Stretch film can stretch up to at least three times its original length to offer superior load containment and stability.
– Stretch film allows for easy visual inspection of the wrapped goods.
– Stretch film is designed to withstand the rigours of transportation and handling.
– Stretch film is suitable for both manual and machine applications.
– Stretch film reduces packaging costs by minimising the amount of material needed to secure a load and the risk of product damage and loss.
Stretch film is a highly stretchable plastic film (LLDPE) wrapped around palletized goods to unitize them and keep items tightly bound. Usually made from LLDPE which has properties such as a good balance of weight, cost, and strength, the stretch film offers an extent of protection from the elements and tampering. In warehouse distribution where the demands for increased productivity continue to rise, it is a priority to ensure boxes stay on the pallet and properly aligned.
In pallet unitizing,
– Stretch film improves the stability of products or packages by forming a full unit load
– Stretch film creates more efficient handling and storage of unit loads
– Stretch film serves as dust and moisture protection
– Stretch film provides tamper resistance and protection from package pilferage
Quality stretch film can stretch 3 times or more. Its performance depends on the type of stretch film, the stretch wrapping machine and most importantly, the product load. There are also several types of stretch film available, with color or UV features.
For optimum applications in the stretch film on a stretch wrapping machine, please refer to our section on Stretch Wrapping Machines.
