Machine Stretch Film
High-Performance Machine Pallet Wrap for Stable, Efficient Loads
Machine stretch film — also called machine pallet wrap or machine stretch wrap — is designed for powered pallet-wrapping equipment. Correctly matched film provides consistent load containment while helping reduce material use, wrapping time and cost per pallet.
Consistent Load Stability
Controlled film application helps secure pallets for storage, handling and transport.
Efficient Film Use
Pre-stretch performance can reduce the amount of pallet wrap required per load.

Performance Is More Than Film Gauge
True wrapping performance depends on film yield, puncture resistance, holding force, load containment and compatibility with the pre-stretch carriage. We assess these factors together rather than recommending film by thickness alone.
Correct machine settings are equally important. Pre-stretch, applied tension, turntable or arm speed, overlap and the number of top and bottom wraps all influence the finished pallet.
Our team can help you select the right material and specification for your application.
Selecting the Right Machine Stretch Film
Film selection should account for the pallet wrapper and carriage type, pre-stretch ratio, load weight, product shape, sharp edges, pallet dimensions, storage environment and transport conditions. We can review your current film use, wrapping settings and load requirements, then recommend trials where appropriate.
