What is a Grip Film and How Does It Enhance Packaging?

When talking about hand pallet wrap, the term “grip film” often comes up. Grip film is a specialised type of stretch film designed with enhanced grip properties. This means that the film clings more securely to the load, offering additional stability without the need for excessive wrapping.

What is Grip in Film?

A grip in film refers to the clinginess or tackiness of the stretch film, which enables it to stick to itself without using adhesives. This cling helps ensure that the film remains tightly secured to the load, offering enhanced load containment and stability. For businesses handling high-volume shipments, using grip films can save time and materials, as fewer wraps are needed to secure a pallet effectively.

Benefits of Using Grip Film

Enhanced Load Security: Gripped films offer superior holding power, ensuring that palletized goods remain tightly secured even during long-distance transport.

Fewer Wrappings Required: Thanks to the strong cling of grip film, fewer layers are needed to achieve the same level of stability as standard stretch film, reducing material waste and saving time during the wrapping process.

Improved Efficiency: Grip Systems design products that allow operators to work more efficiently, whether using a pallet wrap dispenser or other tools. By incorporating grip film into your packaging process, you can optimise performance, reduce fatigue, and improve overall productivity.

What is Hand Pallet Wrap?

Hand pallet wrap, also known as pallet wrapping film or clear pallet wrap, is a type of pallet wrap film that is applied manually to secure products on pallets. It is stretchable plastic film made from polyethylene, designed to tightly bundle items together for stability and protection during storage and transport. The stretchability of the wrap ensures a tight fit, helping to keep products secure while reducing the risk of load shifting during transportation.

Benefits of Using a Pallet Wrap Dispenser

Ergonomic Design: Applying hand pallet wrap can be physically demanding, especially when wrapping multiple pallets throughout the day.

pallet wrap dispenser reduces the physical strain by allowing the operator to apply the film without bending over or stretching excessively, reducing the risk of injury.

Increased Wrapping Speed: With a pallet wrap dispenser, operators can apply the wrap much faster than by hand, allowing for quicker pallet preparation and improved efficiency.

Even Film Application: Pallet wrap dispensers ensure the film is applied evenly across the load, preventing areas from being under- or over-wrapped, which could compromise load security.

Material Savings: By ensuring that the film is applied correctly and efficiently, a pallet wrap dispensercan help reduce film waste, leading to cost savings on packaging materials.
