What is stretch film ?

Stretch wrapping is a cost effective method of securing goods on pallets.

It is made from LLDPE ( Linear Low Density Polyethelyne ) Polymers, the film relies on its inherent memory to contract on the load after the film has been applied.

In the manufacturing process a tackerfier is added to ensure that the film sticks to itself after it has been appied to the load.
