Every operation is different. Load weight, pallet configuration, stretch requirements, and handling conditions all impact which film performs best. If you need assistance choosing the right hand stretch film or would like pricing and availability details, our packaging specialists are ready to help.
Hand stretch film is used to secure palletized loads, bundle products, and stabilize shipments during storage and transportation. It is commonly applied in warehouses, distribution centers, and shipping docks where manual wrapping is preferred. Hand stretch wrap helps prevent shifting, damage, and product loss while providing consistent load containment across a wide range of pallet sizes and weights.
Hand stretch film is designed for manual application by operators, while machine stretch film is engineered for use with automated or semi-automated stretch wrapping equipment. Hand film offers greater flexibility for lower-volume operations, varied pallet sizes, and on-demand wrapping, whereas machine film is optimized for high-speed, high-volume, uniform pallet wrapping environments.
Choosing the correct hand stretch film gauge depends on load weight, pallet shape, and containment requirements. Lower gauges work well for light, uniform loads, while mid-range gauges handle general warehouse use. Higher gauges or engineered films are recommended for heavier or irregular pallets. Advanced engineered films allow thinner gauges to outperform traditional thicker films.
A 300% stretch rating means the film can stretch up to three times its original length before breaking. This increased stretch capability allows users to secure pallets using less material while maintaining strong load containment. High-stretch films improve efficiency, reduce film consumption, and help lower overall packaging costs without sacrificing load stability or performance.
Engineered hand stretch film uses advanced resin blends and manufacturing technology to deliver higher stretch and strength in thinner gauges. This allows for improved load containment while reducing material usage. Engineered films are ideal for operations focused on efficiency, waste reduction, and consistent wrapping results across medium to heavy or irregular pallet loads.
Ultra hi-performance hand stretch film is best suited for heavy, high-value, or difficult-to-wrap pallet loads. With stretch performance exceeding 300%, it provides superior load retention using less material. This film is commonly used in high-volume distribution centers and operations focused on maximizing efficiency, reducing waste, and optimizing total packaging costs.
Yes, ultra thin hand stretch film is designed to provide impressive strength and stretch despite its reduced gauge. It is ideal for light to medium pallet loads where efficiency and material reduction are priorities. Ultra thin film offers long roll lengths, fewer changeovers, and consistent load containment, making it a strong option for fast-paced and sustainability-focused operations.
Hand stretch film is available in a wide range of gauges, widths, and roll lengths to suit different applications and operator preferences. Common widths include 12”, 15”, and 18”, with varying roll lengths based on gauge and performance level. Having multiple size options helps ensure proper coverage, control, and efficiency during manual wrapping.
Hand stretch film is widely used across warehousing, logistics, manufacturing, food and beverage distribution, and retail fulfillment operations. It is commonly applied for pallet stabilization, shipping protection, product bundling, and inventory storage. Its versatility makes it a reliable solution for operations handling mixed loads, varied pallet sizes, and frequent manual wrapping needs.
Yes. Selecting the right hand stretch film depends on several factors, including load weight, pallet configuration, stretch requirements, and handling conditions. Our packaging specialists can evaluate your application and recommend the most efficient film to improve load stability, reduce material usage, and control costs.
