    Stretch Wrap

      Stretch Film is Stretch Film, Isn't it?

      Blown film

      Blown film is created by forcing molten resin through a circular die, creating a tube, which is “blown” like a bubble some 30 feet high. The bubble is then flattened, cut into strips and rolled onto a core. Blown film is generally “labeled” a tough, hazy, and noisy.  It is most commonly used in hand wrapping applications.

      Strengths

      Weaknesses

      • Relatively tough and puncture resistant
      • Abrasion resistant
      • Able to develop high force to load
      • Lower clarity
      • Noisy when unwinding


      Cast Film

      This film is created when molten resin is extruded into a thin layer over a large cooling drum.  Once it solidifies, the resulting sheet of film is slit into strips and rolled.

      Strengths

      Weaknesses

      • Clear
      • Quiet to apply
      • Consistent thickness
      • Lower puncture resistance

       

      Most stretch films today are actually made up of multiple layers designed to impart different properties into the finished product.

      PPI “EZ Reach” Wrap Dispenser

       

      Though they work, traditional hand wrap dispensers aren’t very ergonomic and can be uncomfortable to operate. Bending over to wrap low loads and reaching uncomfortably to wrap tall loads invites back and shoulder injuries. Traditional wrappers also require the operator to walk backwards around the load as they apply film. Not being able to look in the direction your walking creates a potential trip hazard and tends to cause the “dizziness” that traditional wrap dispensers are known for. The EZ Reach wrap dispenser solves all of these problems and offers other advantages related to both safety and productivity.
