Stretch wrapping equipment is a versatile packaging solution used to secure and protect loads for transportation or storage. Stretch wrapping provides stability, prevents shifting, and safeguards against damage during handling and transit.
After placing your unitized loads on pallets or slip sheets, the next step is to secure them safely and efficiently to ensure that they arrive without damage. Stretch wrapping allows us to achieve the goals of easy and safe transportation in the most cost-effective manner possible.
Sunstream proudly represents Lantech, the founder of this innovation and the market leader in load unitization in Singapore. Lantech is committed to making load unitization and stretch wrapping easy, cost-efficient, and versatile. A Lantech wrapping machine is suitable for any of your applications.
Stretch wrapping ensures minimal movement of loads and maximum safety during transportation. Although there are many other methods of load unitization, this wrapping approach increases the odds that your loads arrive safely, securely, and without damage.
Lantech has developed criteria to define an effectively wrapped pallet load. A safe-to-ship load must be:
1. Wrapped with sufficient and appropriate containment force throughout the load. Containment force is the product of the stretch film tension and the number of film layers.
2. Locked to the pallet with a stretch film cable. This is done by rolling the film into a tight cable and placing that cable below the pallet’s deck boards.
3. Have no film tails which create safety hazards that can cause loads to partially unwrap.
Stretch wrapping tightly secures items together, creating a stable unit load. This prevents shifting, toppling, or sliding during transportation or storage. With a protective barrier, stretch wrapping shields the goods from moisture, dust, and other environmental factors.
Stretch wrapping is a cost-effective packaging method compared to alternative options like strapping or shrink wrapping. The stretch film itself is relatively inexpensive, and the equipment required is generally affordable.
Stretch wrapping equipment automates the packaging process, saving time and labour compared to manual methods. With the ability to wrap multiple loads quickly and consistently, productivity is enhanced. Additionally, stretch-wrapping machines often feature programmable settings, allowing customization for different load sizes, shapes, and film tension requirements.
Whether it is pallet wrapping or stretch wrapping, stretch film is used for easy visual inspection of the wrapped goods. This visibility is crucial for inventory management, quality control, and scanning barcodes or labels without the need for unwrapping. The film’s ability to hold items tightly together also facilitates safer and more efficient material-handling operations.
