Stretch
Wrap
Various sizes
and types of this extremely flexible, widely used packaging material,
along with the dispensers that make shipping departments more efficient.
 Utilization
Stretch wrap is a widely used material for securing all types of products
and objects in virtually every industrial sector. Because stretch wrap
holds loads in place, it can be utilized to bundle, stabilize, unitize
and protect an extremely wide range of products of all sizes, from the
containers of electronic accessories to full palletainers and large
industrial machinery. Jewelry firms often use opaque stretch wrap because
it protects and also cloaks the value of the shipment.
Usually used
with specialized dispensers, stretch wrap delivers several advantages.
It is extremely easy to use, because it exits rapidly from dispensers
and fixes in place automatically, requiring no extra action nor equipment
to adhere. It holds loads firmly, while at the same time, not cutting
into individual items or corners.
 Usage
Advice
We favor cast stretch wrap – one of two manufacturing techniques
– because its use is quiet, while blown film – the other technique
– makes a screeching sound as it exists dispensers and as the actual
wrapping takes place. The sound during the use of blown stretch wrap
with dispensers makes conversation difficult in confined areas.
 Common
Mistakes
Often, stretch wrap is not stretched enough to secure individual items
in a load or the load itself. This causes unstable loads. Our film is
routinely stretched more than 200%, which means that 1 foot of film
will extend to 3 feet.
 Specifications
Based on the manufacturing technique, stretch wrap comes in two types
– cast or blown film. Our bi-axially oriented, three-layer polypropylene,
co-extruded cast film is manufactured on the most modern extruders in
industry. And our product delivers consistent characteristics capable
of delivering normal adhesion at temperatures as low as – 20 º
Fahrenheit.
