Introduction to Machine-Grade Stretch Film
Machine-grade stretch film is a highly resistant and versatile type of film, ideal for packaging industrial and commercial products of various sizes and shapes.
Let’s explore its characteristics and uses together.

Characteristics of Machine-Grade Stretch Film
Stretch film has numerous technical characteristics that make it a high-quality and reliable material.

Firstly, its elasticity allows for excellent adhesion to surfaces and creates a protective barrier against dust, moisture, and external agents.
Thanks to its ability to perfectly adapt to surfaces and stretch uniformly, this film can ensure excellent product protection and greater load stability during transport.
Moreover, its resistance to tearing and puncturing makes it particularly suitable for packaging heavy and fragile objects, such as glass bottles, cans, and industrial machinery.
Uses of Machine-Grade Stretch Film
Machine-grade stretch film is used in various sectors, from the food industry to pharmaceuticals, from logistics to retail.

It is particularly widespread in warehousing and goods transportation activities, where it is used to protect and stabilize loads during movement.
Additionally, machine-grade stretch film can also be used as a protective film for industrial product surfaces, for example, to prevent scratches or damage during assembly or processing operations.
