Stretch Film, Stretch Hood Film

Stretch film is a versatile, high-performance packaging material designed to securely wrap and stabilize palletized loads for transportation and storage. Made from linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE), stretch film offers exceptional elasticity and cling, allowing it to tightly hold products together while protecting them from dust, moisture, and damage.

Key Benefits:
  • Load Stability: The film’s elasticity provides excellent tension to keep pallets secure, preventing shifting or toppling during handling and shipping.

  • Protection: Acts as a barrier against dirt, dust, moisture, and abrasion, preserving product integrity.

  • Cost-Efficiency: Stretch film is lightweight and efficient, reducing overall packaging costs by minimizing material usage while maximizing load security.

  • Versatility: Suitable for wrapping a wide range of product types and pallet sizes, including irregular shapes and mixed loads.

  • Environmental Considerations: Many stretch films are recyclable and available in formulations that use less material without compromising strength, supporting sustainable packaging practices.

Types of Stretch Film:
  • Hand Stretch Film: Ideal for manual wrapping in low to medium volume operations, offering excellent stretch and cling for easy application.

  • Machine Stretch Film: Designed for use with automatic or semi-automatic pallet wrapping machines, providing consistent film tension and coverage for high-volume production.

  • Pre-Stretched Film: Film that is stretched during manufacturing to reduce force needed during application, improving operator comfort and reducing film consumption.

  • Specialty Films: Includes UV-resistant, anti-static, colored, and perforated films tailored for specific industry needs.

Applications:

 

Stretch film is widely used across industries such as manufacturing, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, logistics, and retail. It ensures products remain stable and protected through warehousing, transportation, and distribution.
