If you’ve never heard of the term ‘stretch wrap’, then maybe ‘cling film’ or ‘stretch film’ will sound familiar to you.
Whatever you call it, it is one of the simplest ways to secure and protect your goods for transportation, or storage.
There are many benefits of selecting stretch wrap as your protective wrap:
Increased product protection: By using stretch wrap, you are protecting your goods from exposure to dirt, dust and moisture, keeping the product in pristine condition, clean and dry and it is still entirely visible.
There are also special UVI stretch films that can protect from UV rays, when a product is being stored outdoors.
Reduction of product damage/increased load stability: Stretch wrap securely wraps the product, helping with a more stable load that will prevent the product from moving inside the tight packaging, and prevent damage to the product damage.
Improved shipping and handling efficiencies: The height of the stacking of products is increased, and this will maximise your cube space when storing or shipping a product as the stretch wrap, combined with angled boards allows a higher stacking load on pallets.
As it is a quick way of wrapping, more work time is allowed, increasing your work productivity.
Stretch wrap enables you wrap up oddly shaped loads, than cannot be stacked in a neat square configuration
Improved inventory control: Inventory can be improved by grouping like products together, reducing the possibility of product separation that could make inventory checks time consuming and inaccurate.
Again, as the wrap is clear, it allows the scanning system to scan straight through the packaging.
Recyclable: A majority of stretch wrap is 100% recyclable and, if kept reasonably intact and clean, can be recycled for cash, keeping it out of landfills, that are becoming much too overused.
