WHAT IS STRETCH FILM PACKAGING?
Stretch film comes in roll form and consists of linear, low-density polyethylene. Also known as stretch wrap, shippers use this film to secure products to the pallet and each other in the preshipment process.
Various types of stretch film consist of a wide range of gauges with unique coating options that offer opaque and ultraviolet (UV) protection. Manufacturers make some varieties of stretch films that are suited for machine packaging rather than manual applications. Most types of stretch film are fully recyclable at facilities that accept soft plastics.
