Pallet wrap (also known as stretch wrap) is a highly stretchable film made from Linear low-density polyethylene. Due to the strong elastic recovery properties, the wrap will tightly grip anything it is wrapped around. This makes it ideal to wrap pallets, parcels & suitcases, as it will keep items in place and allow little movement while in transit.

High performance co-extruded film

The wrap is manufactured in the UK using a high-performance co-extruded film. The film is extruded through a slot die, then passed over cooling rollers. This produces a high-quality consistent cast film with high clarity. Resulting in a much less reflective surface, allowing labels and barcodes to be visible through the wrap. While cast film will not have the same high cling quality as blown film, it will have some ‘stickiness’ to it. The pallet wrap is available in a cost-effective lighter duty 17mu thickness or the heavy duty 25mu thick film.

Extremely cost-effective pre-stretched rolls

Pre-stretched pallet wrap is becoming increasingly popular within UK warehouses. This is a 17mu film that has been machine stretched to the optimal length, resulting in 600 meters of 7mu film. This means you will receive the maximum value out of each role, whereas standard hand pallet wrap relies on the packer 'stretching' the wrap to its full capacity.

Various core types & colours

The pallet wrap is available in three types of cores, standard core, extended core & mini core. The standard core is ideal for set ups that are using a pallet wrap dispenser or holder. While both core types can be used by hand, the extended core rolls have a larger area to grip – making it far easier to use.

The most commonly used colours in the UK is black, clear and blue. The black is ideal when trying to lower the visibility(or if visibility isn’t required) of the items within. This is particularly helpful when wrapping high value goods. Clear wrap is perfect for when you need to see the items inside. This is very helpful in a warehouses which have many similar looking pallets, ensuring stock can be easily identified without checking labels or opening the pallet. The clear pallet wrap can also make it possible to scan barcodes through. Blue pallet wrap is widely used in the food packaging industry, ensuring its easily possible to identify which pallets contain food products and which do not.
