Black Stretch Wrap

Whether your company transports large amounts of items or needs to maintain a tidy warehouse, black stretch wrap is a convenient and safe way to keep items in place.

Stretch Wrap Keeps Products Together
Stretch wrap effectively binds items together for easy transportation and space-efficient storage. This is a significant benefit for items that are prone to tipping over when stacked since stretch wrap uses additional pressure to hold items in place. This feature makes stretch film the natural choice for uncommonly shaped items that cannot be easily stacked.

Use Stretch Film to Attach Items to Pallets
Pallets provide a sturdy base for heavy items. They're also optimal for transporting large amounts of small items. Black stretch film wraps around items and pallets to keep items securely attached, ensuring that products safely reach their destinations.

Select a Gauge That Fits Your Storage Needs
Stretch film is available in a variety of gauges. The gauge of stretch film indicates its thickness, which determines its strength and how much weight it can bear before tearing. The most common option is 80-gauge film, but brands produce film in thinner and thicker gauges. With heavy items, a higher film gauge is appropriate. A popular option for larger items is 120-gauge film. Thicker film is ideal for items and boxes with sharp corners since it resists tears more easily than thin film.

How can Users Choose the Right Stretch Film?
Gauge is clearly an important factor in any stretch film purchase. Users should also compare options of different widths and lengths. The ideal option for you depends on how large your items and pallets are. Common width options include 18 inches, 20 inches and 30 inches. A short roll is convenient for those who only use stretch wrap occasionally, while long rolls let frequent users get more out of each roll. Stretch wrap rolls often measure 800 feet, 1,000 feet or 1,500 feet in length. Large rolls for commercial use can measure up to 15,000 feet.

How is Stretch Wrap Applied?
With accessories and built-in dispensers, it's simple to apply stretch wrap to products and pallets. Some brands include hand rollers with the stretch wrap. Hand rollers permit users to unwrap and pull stretch wrap with one or two hands. Dispensers apply stretch wrap evenly and minimize the strain on hands. Many dispensers adjust to rolls of varying widths.

What are the Benefits of Black Stretch Wrap?
A black stretch film is a viable option for items that must be kept private. Many brands create film that is opaque with just one layer of coverage, so you don't need to use multiple layers to fully cover items and labels. This product is also popular for items that are prone to sun damage since the thick film protects products from the light. Puncture-resistant film offers the heavy-duty protection needed for outdoor storage and transportation.
