The Benefits of Using Stretch Film in Packaging

Stretch film is a cornerstone of effective packaging for a host of compelling reasons. Its benefits extend beyond simple containment, playing a crucial role in maintaining the integrity of goods throughout the logistical chain.

• Improved Stability: By tightly securing loads, stretch film minimizes movement, thereby reducing the risk of product damage during handling and transport.
• Damage and Moisture Protection: The wrap shields products from dust, dirt, and moisture, contributing to a reduction in waste due to damaged goods.
• Enhanced Storage Efficiency: Well-wrapped pallets take up less space and can be stacked higher, maximizing warehouse and storage capacity.
• Cargo Transparency: Clear films allow easy identification and inspection of goods without the need to unwrap them, facilitating quicker inventory processing and customs inspections.
• Deterrence of Theft: Opaque films obscure the contents, helping to deter tampering or theft during shipping and storage.

Additionally, the inherent flexibility of stretch film allows it to be used for a wide range of product shapes and sizes, making it a versatile packaging solution. Its use results not only in cost savings by reducing product loss but also contributes to a more streamlined and efficient supply chain.

What is Stretch Film?

Stretch film, also called stretch wrap, is a plastic film used to wrap around pallets, boxes, or individual products to keep them secure during storage or transport. It is highly stretchable, allowing it to tightly grip and hold items together while providing protection against dirt, moisture, and shifting.

Stretch film comes in two primary forms:

• Hand Stretch Film – Ideal for businesses wrapping pallets manually. This includes standard hand wrap for larger loads and bundling film for securing smaller packages, irregular items, or multiple boxes together without adhesives or tape.
• Machine Stretch Film – Used with automated stretch wrappers for high-volume applications, improving efficiency and consistency.

But not all stretch film is the same! The right choice depends on load type, shipping conditions, and industry needs.
