STRETCH FILM

Products often get damaged during shipping, and stretch films help keep the load firmly in place and save it from possible damage. Stretch film rolls are one of the most used types of packaging material. They are a simple yet effective way to package products properly.

What is a Stretch Film?

Stretch films or wraps are stretchable plastic films that are used to wrap a product to keep them in place securely. They are commonly used in shipping pallets to keep products and boxes locked-in during shipping. They are a must-have for eCommerce businesses that often ship products. They help pack the products properly and reduce product loss during shipment and loading and unloading.

Stretch films look similar to the plastic wrap that many use in their kitchen. But they are heavy-duty wraps and strong enough to bundle products together and keep them in place. Stretch films come in different grades, widths, and colours to meet your different applications.

Types of Stretch Films

Stretch wraps come in different types to meet different packaging needs, in the following, we will explain some of the most important types of stretch films:

Hand Stretch Roll

Stretch wrap that is applied manually on the products is referred to as hand stretch wrap. It is also referred to as manual pallet wrap. Businesses that have lower capacity operations generally use hand stretch films.

Machine Stretch Film

Machine stretch film is applied with a machine – a stretch wrap machine. A machine stretch wrap leads to faster and efficient wrapping. It can secure more loads in lesser time. Its common types are pre-stretched films, cast machine stretch film, and blown machine film. Thickness from 19 to 50 micron and width from 15 to 110 cm can be supplied.

Stretch Power Movie(Power Stretch Film)

This type of stretch film has more advantages due to the use of special raw materials for production and is used in stretch pallet machines that have a high production capacity due to its high tensile strength and twisting speed. Thickness from 19 to 30 micron and width from 50 to 110 cm can be supplied.

In terms of physical specifications, stretch films are produced and used in different models from one layer to five layers and in different lengths.
