Stretch film, also known as stretch wrap, is one of the most widely used pallet packaging materials in logistics and warehousing. Made mainly from LLDPE (linear low-density polyethylene), it offers high stretchability, strong cling and good clarity. It protects goods from dust and moisture and keeps loads from shifting during transport. Stretch film comes in two main types: hand film and machine film. Hand stretch film is light, usually 2–5 kg per roll, and is applied manually. It is flexible and well suited to small batches or irregularly sized goods. Machine stretch film comes in heavier rolls, typically 15–25 kg, and is used with a stretch wrapping machine. With a pre-stretch rate of up to 200%–300%, it wraps faster and uses less film, making it ideal for factories and large warehouses. When choosing thickness, 12–17 microns works for light loads, 20–25 microns for standard pallet loads, and 30 microns or more for heavy loads or goods with sharp edges. Buyers should also check puncture resistance, load holding force and even cling, so loads do not loosen or the film does not break in transit. Dongrun Packaging manufactures hand and machine stretch film from 12 to 50 microns, with custom specifications available on request. Contact us for a quote. |
