LDPE strech hood
LDPE strech hood
Stretch wrap is a type of plastic film used to wrap and protect products during transport or storage. It is typically used with a stretch wrap machine, which uses a high-speed process to stretch the film and wrap it tightly around the product. It is available in different thicknesses, widths and colours to suit different packaging needs. The film is usually made of linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE), which is a strong and durable material that provides excellent protection against moisture, dust and other contaminants.
Some of the benefits of using stretch hood film include:
Increased product stability: it provides a tight and secure wrapping of products, preventing movement or damage during transport.
Moisture and dust protection: stretch hood film provides a barrier against moisture and dust, helping to protect products from damage and contamination.
Cost-effective: It is a cost-effective solution for large packaging as it can be used quickly and efficiently with a stretch hood machine.
Environmentally friendly: Stretch hood film is a sustainable packaging solution as it can be recycled and reused, reducing waste and environmental impact.
Stretch hood is available in several different formats to suit different packaging needs. The most commonly used formats include:
Single roll: This format is wound on a single roll, with each layer of film wound directly onto the previous layer. Single wound film is commonly used in bulk packaging as it can be used quickly and efficiently.
Jumbo rolls: Jumbo rolls of film are larger than single roll rolls and are typically used in larger packaging applications where a larger quantity of film is required.
Pre-perforated: Pre-perforated film is perforated at regular intervals, making it easier to tear off the desired length of film. This design is commonly used in applications where different amounts of film are required.
Custom printed: Custom printed stretch hood film with company logo, white line for later printing of product information or other brand information. This design is typically used in applications where packaging is an important part of the marketing strategy.
In general, the manufacture and design of the stretch hood film depends on the specific packaging needs of the product to be packaged. By choosing the right format, companies can ensure that their products are packaged safely and efficiently, helping to reduce the risk of damage or loss during transport or storage. At the same time, it provides a sustainable and environmentally friendly packaging solution.
LDPE films
The most commonly used ldpe foils are heat-shrinkable foils intended for wrapping packaging for mainly group packaging of products (e.g. drinks, food products, chemical, pharmaceutical, construction products, magazines…
