Stretch Hood Film - Overview

Stretch hood film is designed to fit snugly over an entire pallet load, offering an optimal combination of stretchability, strength, and clarity, ensuring your products remain secure and presentable during storage and transit.

Key Features - Wrap Smarter, Not Harder

Stretch hood film has a number of attributes which make it the perfect choice for your packaging needs. These features include;

  • Exceptional Elasticity - After being stretched, the film can return close to its original dimensions, ensuring a tight and secure hold on the palletised goods.

  • High Tear and Puncture Resistance - LLDPE provides robust protection against tears and punctures, safeguarding your goods in all handling scenarios.

  • Enhanced Clarity - Clear film ensures product visibility and barcodes remain easily scannable, facilitating seamless inventory management.

  • Weatherproof Protection - Our film offers excellent resistance to UV rays, moisture, and extreme temperatures, making it ideal for both indoor and outdoor storage. The 5-sided coverage makes it more suitable for all weathers compared to other films.

The Benefits of Stretch Hood Film


Our stretch hood films provide numerous benefits for users, such as;

  • Cost & Staff Efficiency - Our hood stretch film reduces film consumption by up to 60% compared to traditional stretch wrap solutions. Therefore, it is a more sustainable process that requires less human attention, increasing staff productivity.

  • Quick and Easy Application - Our film is compatible with a variety of automated stretch hood machines, streamlining your packaging process and saving labour costs. Stretch hood systems are capable of wrapping up to 150 pallets per hour.

  • Enhanced Load Stability - Our stretch hood film provides uniform tension over the entire load, minimising movement and reducing the risk of damage during transit.

  • Improved Safety - Our stretch hood film eliminates the need for manual wrapping, reducing the risk of injury and ensuring consistent application every time.

  • Uniform Tension - The film provides even tension and coverage across the load, minimising the risk of uneven wrapping or film bunching.
