Power Pre-Cast Stretch Film - 200% Power Stretch

Power pre-cast stretch film, specifically the 200% power stretch variant from Macfarlane Packaging, is an advanced packaging solution designed to provide exceptional load stability and protection during transportation and storage. This stretch film is engineered to stretch up to 200% of its original length, allowing for a tighter and more secure wrapping around products.

The pre-cast stretch film's high-performance characteristics help reduce the amount of film needed, leading to cost savings and less environmental waste.

The 200% power stretch film is ideal for a variety of applications. Our stretch film also ensures that products remain safe and intact while minimising the risk of damage during handling.

Power pre-cast stretch film is primarily used for securing and stabilising loads during storage and transportation. Its exceptional stretch capability allows it to tightly wrap around products, providing protection from dust, moisture, and damage.

The 200% power stretch film is ideal for bundling multiple items, ensuring they remain organised and intact. Additionally, its efficient use reduces material waste, making it a cost-effective solution for various industrial and commercial packaging applications.

The 200% pre-cast stretch film provides superior load containment, reduces the risk of product damage during transit, and improves efficiency in packaging operations.

Overall, it enhances load stability and safety across a wide range of sectors.

Using 200% power pre-stretched stretch film offers several benefits, including:

• Enhanced Load Stability: The film’s superior tensile strength helps secure loads tightly, minimising shifting and reducing the risk of damage during transportation and storage.
• Reduced Film Usage: Because the film is pre-stretched, less material is needed to achieve the same level of protection, leading to cost savings and less waste.
• Improved Efficiency: The film can be applied with less force, making it easier to wrap products quickly, which can enhance overall packaging productivity.
• Resistance to Punctures and Tears: The stretch film is designed to withstand handling and transportation challenges, reducing the likelihood of punctures and tears.
• Versatility: This type of film is suitable for a wide range of applications, from bundling products to securing pallet loads, making it a flexible option for various packaging needs.
• Reduced Downtime: The ease of application and fewer interruptions due to film breakage can lead to less downtime in packaging operations.

Overall, 200% power pre-stretched stretch film is an effective solution for improving packaging processes and protecting goods in transit.

Shrink wrap and pallet wrap, often referred to as stretch film, are both commonly used for packaging and protecting goods, but they serve different purposes and have distinct characteristics:

Shrink Wrap:

• Application Method: Shrink wrap is applied by enclosing the product or item in the wrap and then using heat to shrink the wrap tightly around the item.
• Material: Shrink wrap is typically made from polyethylene plastic.
• Shrinking Process: When heat is applied to shrink wrap, it contracts and conforms tightly to the shape of the item, creating a sealed and protective barrier.
• Protection: Shrink wrap provides a secure seal that protects items from dirt, moisture, and tampering. It is often used for packaging individual products or items.
• Appearance: Shrink wrap creates a smooth and tight finish around the packaged item, giving it a professional look.
• Common Applications: Shrink wrap is commonly used for packaging CDs, DVDs, books, electronics, and other individual products.

Pallet Wrap (Stretch Film):

• Application Method: Pallet wrap, or stretch film, is applied by wrapping it around palletised goods or items to secure and stabilise them on a pallet.
• Material: Pallet wrap is made from polyethylene plastic as well, but it is formulated with stretch properties to provide elasticity.
• Stretching Process: Pallet wrap is stretched during application, and it clings tightly to itself and the items on the pallet as it reverts to its original size.
• Protection: Pallet wrap holds the items on a pallet together, preventing shifting, movement, and potential damage during transit.
• Appearance: Pallet wrap creates a layered and overlapping look around the entire pallet, optimising load stability.
• Common Applications: Pallet wrap is primarily used for securing large quantities of items on pallets, ensuring they remain intact during transportation and storage.

In summary, while both shrink wrap and pallet wrap are made from plastic materials, they have distinct methods of application, purposes, and appearances. Shrink wrap is used to tightly enclose and seal individual products, while pallet wrap is used to secure and stabilise multiple items on a pallet.
