Stretch wrapping is a packaging technique used to secure and protect goods, particularly when preparing items for transportation or storage. It involves wrapping a highly stretchable plastic film, typically made from polyethylene, around products or pallets. The film adheres to itself, creating a tight and secure cover that holds items in place, preventing movement and damage during handling and transport. The elasticity of the stretch film allows it to conform tightly around irregularly shaped items and provides excellent load stability. Stretch wrapping is commonly used in industries such as logistics, manufacturing, and retail, where bulk goods need to be bundled together on pallets for ease of transportation. The process is economical, flexible, and provides a clear, tamper-evident layer around the products. Additionally, it helps reduce packaging material waste, as the film can be applied in thin layers while still maintaining strength and security. Stretch wrap is also available in various thicknesses and types, including UV-resistant and colored films, to cater to specific shipping or storage needs.
