Logistics & Warehousing

The challenge

Hundreds of pallets a day that have to leave stable, wrapped and ready for the truck or container.

In a warehouse, load stability comes from three things: a sound pallet, stretch film that ties the load to the pallet, and strapping where the load is heavy or tall. Hand film suits low volumes; a pallet wrapper gives more consistent wrapping and less film waste once volumes grow. For containers, wrap the bottom of the load to the pallet and keep pallets within the container's door and floor dimensions.

Common questions

When is a pallet wrapper worth it?

When you wrap enough pallets that hand wrapping becomes slow, tiring or inconsistent. A machine applies film at a controlled tension and pattern, which usually means more stable loads and less film used per pallet.

Do wooden pallets need treatment for export to the US?

Solid wood packaging entering the United States generally has to meet the international ISPM 15 standard (heat treatment or fumigation, with the official mark). Confirm the requirement for your shipment with your importer or customs broker, and ask us about the pallets for your order.

Should I wrap the pallet itself?

Yes. Taking a few wraps down onto the pallet ties the load to its base; film that only covers the cartons lets the whole load slide off the pallet.
