Machine Stretch Film for Pallet Wrappers

The right machine stretch film depends on the type of pallet, the weight of the load and the settings of the pallet wrapper. For light pallets, a thinner stretch film is often sufficient, while heavier or unstable pallets require thicker machine stretch film with a higher stretch percentage.

Which machine stretch film do you need?

When choosing machine stretch film, the film thickness, stretch percentage and application are especially important. Not every pallet requires the same film. It is also important to know which stretch percentage your pallet wrapper is suitable for. If the pallet wrapper is suitable for film with a 150% stretch percentage, it makes little sense to order machine film with a stretch percentage of 250% or even higher. The film cannot then be stretched fully, which means you actually use more film than necessary.

Machine stretch film for light pallets

17 my machine stretch film is often chosen for light and stable pallets. This film is suitable for standard transport and limited film consumption.

Machine stretch film for standard pallets

20 my machine film is widely used for general warehouse and transport applications. This thickness offers a good balance between strength and film consumption.

Machine stretch film for heavy pallets

23 my or 35 my stretch film is more suitable for heavy, tall or unstable pallets. This thicker machine stretch film provides extra resistance against tearing and punctures.

Different stretch percentages explained

Machine stretch film is available with various stretch percentages. The higher the pre-stretch, the more efficiently the film can be used.

150% stretch film

Suitable for standard pallet wrappers without a high pre-stretch system.

250% power stretch film

Power stretch machine film offers greater efficiency because the film can be stretched further without losing stability.

300% power stretch machine film

Suitable for pallet wrappers with high pre-stretch. This helps reduce film consumption while keeping pallets securely wrapped.

Machine stretch film is available in different colours.

Transparent machine stretch film

Black stretch film limits visibility and is often used for valuable or confidential goods.

Various colours of machine stretch film

We also supply machine stretch film in the following colours: red, green, orange, blue and yellow.

Difference between hand stretch film and machine stretch film

Machine stretch film is developed for use on pallet wrappers and has different properties than hand stretch film. Machine stretch film has a higher stretch percentage, and the rolls contain many more metres, so the roll needs to be changed less frequently. Hand stretch film has a core diameter of 50 mm, while machine stretch film is wound on a much stronger core with a diameter of 76 mm.

For manually wrapping pallets, you can also view our hand stretch film.

Which film thickness do you need?

The right thickness depends on the weight and shape of the pallet.
