Stretch Wraps and Palletizing

Hand Pallet Wrap

Hand pallet wrap is an elastic film that is wrapped around your items to bind them together tightly and provide pallet stability during shipment, storage, transport, internal factory movements, etc. Hand pallet wrap is for manual packaging by human hands only. It is commonly used by companies that pack small quantities of products. Usually, these are companies that package less than 50 pallets a day.

Key Considerations for Hand Stretch Film Choice

Extrusion Differences: Which is better, cast or blown stretch wrap?

1 - Cast Stretch Wrap

Cast stretch wraps are manufactured using an extensive manufacturing process called cast extrusion. This process requires the thermoplastic substrate to be continuously pushed into a flat mould and chilled roller. Film thickness is resolved by the speed with which the casting roll pulls the plastic away from the mould. This process increases the transparency of the cast film and allows the end user to view the packaged objects. This film stretches more easily because it aligns as the molecules are extruded. The cast stretch film is very quiet when unrolled and stretches relatively easily. Cast stretch film also provides double-sided adhesion, giving the packaged product the ability to remain tightly wrapped in transit. 


It is cheaper than blown film and does not retain water. Cast films are generally easy to stretch, but no stretch memory is as sturdy as other films.

2 - Blown Stretch Wrap

Blown stretch wrap is created by a feature called blow extrusion. During this process, the molten plastic is pushed into a circular slot die to create a finished hose. The air is then pushed into the hose and the amount of trapped air expands the hose to its optimum width. An air ring is attached to the top of the tube and air blows through the ring onto the board to cool it. This process of cooling the material makes the blown film stronger and more flexible than other films. Blown film is generally stronger than most other pallet wraps, so it also has higher tear resistance. This is advantageous during the transit of loads with sharp edges that are prone to collapse. The blown film provides a high level of shape memory when stretched. This keeps the package safe.

 

Unfortunately, blown film is more expensive and less transparent than other films. It also produces an unpleasant noise level when compared to other similar substrates.

Pre-stretch film: What does pre stretch mean / What is pre stretch pallet wrap?

The pre-stretched film is stretched near its breakpoint before being rolled into a roll. This film does not require as much energy as other stretch films to achieve the same wrapping force. The consumption of pre-stretched film is often about 50% less than other stretched films, resulting in potentially extreme cost savings.

Core Differences

1- Extended Core Pallet Wrap

An extended core hand wrap acts as a handle when rolled, which ensures your shipments will be properly bundled every time. A roll of extended core pallet wrap can be used directly out of the box without the need for separate dispensers, handles, or machines. Each roll contains a ready-to-use handle that is made of an elongated or extended cardboard core. Designed for portable packaging needs, our extended core films come with a two-sided sturdy core extension.

For crowded or tight workspaces, extended core stretch film is ideal. Since each roll has a handle built in, packagers don't have to wait for a dispensing accessory to be available when binding simultaneously.

2- Flush Core Pallet Wrap / Standard Core Wrap

Flush core stretch wrap rolls have a standard core and they often should be used with handheld dispensers. Pallet wrap dispensers help the user maximise the stretch of the film when the user turns around the pallet. It is typically used in lower volume packaging operations.


Standard core wrap does not require machinery and provides safe and secure wrapping during transport

3- Mini Pallet Wrap

Also referred to as mini stretch film rolls, it strongly binds your goods together. Using it with a dispenser provides a quick and easy application option. It is great for bundling small products.

Colour Differences

Clear / Transparent Pallet Wrap

Clear stretch wraps make it possible to identify the content of the pallet and help to scan barcodes easily. Clear pallet wrap helps you save time and energy during transportation or warehouse operations.

Coloured Pallet Wrap

It is common to use coloured hand stretch film for organising and identifying pallets and products. Coloured pallet wrap can be used to colour-code pallet loads according to date, product type, and shipping location, or to simply differentiate products. 

 

Especially black pallet wrap prevents fading and provides privacy. It is not only a perfect choice to protect your goods from UV lights but also colored hand stretch wrap prevents the temptation of theft during storage or transportation.

Printed Pallet Wrap

Custom printed pallet wrap is a type of stretch film which includes custom printing on the pallet wrap and provides benefits in terms such as brand awareness, advertising and security. It is a custom bespoke stretch film made to order and displays your message or brand logo during all transport and storage processes. Branded pallet wrap is an essential part of your transport packaging as it increases your brand visibility while your shipments are on the way, strengthens your brand by making your pallets more noticeable when they are delivered, and offers the opportunity to advertise your products without any additional expenditure during transit time. 


It provides a visual appeal and comparing the other advertising options is the best cost-effective way to reach prospective customers. If your goods are outdoor stored goods logo printed stretch film is a super fit for your company.


Using customised printed pallet wraps increases brand awareness and product value for your business. Bespoke printed pallet wrap offers the same amount of load stability and security as unprinted pallet wraps. It has a high tear and puncture resistance to provide a highly protected pallet relocation process.

Advantages of Using Pallet Wrap

Hand pallet wrap’s double sided clingy material provides protection against external and environmental factors while stabilising your goods on the pallet. Even sharp and large products can be wrapped perfectly by its excellent tear and puncture resistant form. Excellent clarity speeds up the barcode scanning and product identification processes so that makes the storage and stock control very easy. 

Effortless Application and Time Efficiency

Stretch wraps are easy to apply by hand, saving you time and making the most of your storage space efficiently.

Thin and Robust Construction for Optimal Protection

Despite their thin profile, pallet wraps are remarkably strong, ensuring your items are bound and stabilized during moving or storage, minimizing the risk of damage.

Versatile Suitability for Different Environments

Suitable for both cold and hot environments, stretch films provide secure hold in various conditions, making them adaptable to diverse storage requirements.

Waterproof Barrier for Enhanced Protection

With waterproof properties, stretch films create a reliable barrier against moisture, offering an extra layer of protection for your items during transit or storage.
The manual stretch wrapping feature needs to be continually evaluated for the various improvement opportunities that accompany the conversion to a stretch wrapping machine. Choosing the right stretch application for your packaging line guarantees higher efficiency and more cost-effective production.

F.A.Q.

1Why should I use stretch wrap?
Even if you have a small business or a corporation, pallet wrap is a must for running a business:

-To protect the product from dust, dirt and moisture
-To protect products from ultraviolet rays
-To extend the shelf life of perishables
-To stabilise the stack of packages To protect against tampering and package theft
2Is stretch film the same as shrink wrap?
They are different from each other. The easiest way to tell the two apart is to remember that shrink wrap uses heat to shrink and conform to the packaged product(s). The stretch wrap uses snapping to stick to itself when wrapped.
