Stretch film has the ability to stretch and then tighten. Due to this fact, stretch film ensures reliable fixation of cargo on the pallet or tray during packaging of cargo. Significant thickness enables application of the stretch film for packaging of very heavy cargo. Resistance to mechanical impacts, such as puncturing and forcing, as well as high durability against breaking forces, ensure reliable protection of cargo from moisture and dirt. The fact that the stretch film is transparent simplifies warehouse operation and implementing customer orders.
With the help of stretch film, a dense packaging is obtained, which prevents unauthorized exemption of goods from the formed and packaged unit.
Possessing such qualities as low price, ease of use, aesthetic appearance of manufactured packaging, stretch film is widely used to protect the goods from dirt and dust. Stretch film does not require great effort when packaging products and helps to increase the speed of packaging and loading works.
Stretch Film is classified by packaging types:
stretch film for manual packaging
stretch film for machine packaging
Stretch film for manual packaging has a small weight of the roller, and the packaging process is carried out directly by man.
The film is classified according to certain parameters and has its own area of implementation:
standard roller width of the stretch film: 500mm
stretch film wrapping: any
thickness of the stretch films: 10μm, 12μm, 15μm, 17μm, 20μm, 23μm
color of the stretch film: transparent, black
The stretch film for manual packaging may be implemented in both for transport packaging by wrapping pallets with goods and for individual packaging. Special dispensers are applied during the wrapping process.
Manual stretch film packaging of cargo is applied at relatively small enterprises, where low packaging volumes cause the unreasonableness of automatic pallet wrappers usage.
Stretch film for machine packaging is used on large industrial enterprises for pallet wrapping with palletizer (pallet packer).
The use of pallet wrappers requires significant equipment costs, but allows you to efficiently conduct product packaging using the stretch film.
The use of a palletizer for large volumes of stretch film packaging is the best possible option.
Stretch film is classified by parameters:
standard roll width of the stretch film: 500mm
stretch film wrapping: any
stretch film color: transparent
stretch film thickness: 10μm, 12μm, 15μm, 17μm, 20μm, 23μm
stretching level of the film: 100 - 500%
Stretch film with a thickness of 10μm, 12μm, 15μm, 17μm is used for fixing light and medium weight cargo.
Stretch film with a thickness of 20μm is used for fixing heavy objects and loads with cutting corners.
Stretch film with a thickness of 23μm is used for fixing over-weight loads (bricks, paving slabs, foam concrete blocks)
During selection of the film for packaging using a palletizer, it is necessary to pay attention to the length of the sleeve on which the tape is being wrapped. The length of the sleeve must be the same as the equipment (pallet wrappers) is designed for.
Packaging of goods using stretch film is a modern and very common way of packaging. The stretch film offered by our company is distinguished by a high level of transparency and a degree of reliability.
Stretch hood is a pallet packaging method that offers numerous advantages, not least in comparison with alternative methods, from cost savings to transportation and distribution options. Functionality and quality are key criteria when we customize our films for your specific products. The film operates efficiently regardless of changes in machine settings, humidity or temperature.
Advantages of the stretch hood films:
High quality to minimize downtime.
The elastic hood provides high resistance to load.
Stretchable hood provides 6-sided packaging that protects products from all angles.
Effective protection against wind, weather and dust. You can even protect your items from discoloration with a UV filter.
High transparency enables brand and product positioning, increasing brand value.
Thanks to the flexibility of the film, the holding force and durability, you can use the same film for different load sizes.
No risk of fire or explosion compared to shrink film.
