Are you thinking if you have reserves in your operation where you could save money?

We have some tips for you on how to save money when wrapping pallets with stretch film.

 1. Replacement of manual pallet wrapping with machine wrapping

If your annual consumption of manual stretch film exceeds 1,000 pieces, we recommend switching to machine stretch film. Machine wrapping represents savings primarily due to the lower cost of machine stretch film per linear meter, and also in the uniform consumption of film when wrapping pallets. With manual wrapping, each warehouse worker has a different consumption, with machine wrapping the consumption of stretch film is always the same and at the same time lower than with manual wrapping.

 2. Correct film tension during application

We recommend considering two basic machine variants: with brake or with motor, which can optimally tension the film when applied to the pallet. This is an area that many companies underestimate, but where interesting savings can be made.

 3. Changing the film thickness

We often find that pallets are still wrapped in 23 micron stretch film, which in most cases is an unnecessary outdated product. Nowadays, stretch films have been developed with such properties that they provide the same wrap quality at much lower thicknesses. We have successfully achieved a seamless transition to stretch wrapping with only 6 micron thickness for many of our customers, a 74% saving from the original 23 micron thickness.
Our range includes, for example, 6 micron pre-stretch films, 12 micron stretch films and other cost-saving options. If you would like to try one of our economical variants without obligation, we will be happy to visit you with our samples. We are confident that together we will find a more economical solution than the current one.

 4. Change of supplier

If your current packaging supplier has never gone through the above options with you, it’s time to give us a chance and try out modern packaging methods that will not only save your company money, but also the environment.
