Surprisingly protective and highly stretchable, this plastic film keeps all types of items bound and sealed. Stretch film acts as a barrier to wet weather, dew, dust and damp conditions during long or short term storage and transport of goods. Pallets, boxes and even luggage wrapped in low-density polyethylene film is easier to handle and results in fewer worker injuries and less tampering.

Reduce Product Losses

Stretch film tightly covers packages that contain consumer electronics and appliances, or indeed a wide variety of products that need to be held securely during shipment and storage. This type of plastic film has excellent adhesion to itself and contracts tightly when stretched several times around a pallet or box. It offers greater security than loose boxes or pallets.

Prevent Load Tampering

Though thin, multiple layers of stretch film can be applied around valuable goods at exceptionally low cost, forming a resilient and transparent barrier to anyone who may wish to tamper with any items during their transport.

Limit Worker Injuries

Stretch film wrapped properly around a pallet with a load of boxes helps limit worker injuries. Instead of a pallet carrying loose boxes that may fall accidentally during transport, a pallet that is tightly wrapped from the bottom all the way up to the top boxes keeps them all together. This makes it much easier to move the pallet with its boxes around securely and with greater safety to workers.

Waterproof in Transit

If a watertight bond is required, stretch film can be carefully wrapped from underneath the base all the way to the top, covering all the items to be transported. Ideally, using a hand tool or dispenser will create the best seal, delivering at least five layers of the film as tightly as possible.

Long Term Storage

There are in fact many products that benefit from the use of stretch film, particularly in long term storage. Apart from palletized boxes as already mentioned, drums and buckets of paint, other liquids and dry goods are often wrapped in plastic film for storage. From light electronic goods to heavier furniture, wood and even rocks or bricks, this versatile film protects numerous items from water, dust, damage and tampering.

Tighter Security

Employing plastic film in the correct gauge will also greatly enhance the capacity of the film to keep your goods protected. Various thickness gauges are available, some more suited to light goods for example in IT and communications, and others to heavier goods like furniture. A true digital leader in a rapidly changing world, this is setting new standards within the self adhesive, masking, laminating and stretch film industry.
