Stretch hood

Plastic Union is a leading company regarding the palette packaging market. Besides shrink hoods the company is mainly specialised in the manufacturing of stretch hood film. This is a tubular and elastic film that is put on palettes like nylon stockings on legs !

 

Advantages of stretch hoods

 

  • It's a cheap packaging due to its low weight.
  • The packaging process is cheaper and safer because there is no need of heat anymore for the shrink process.
  • It is a very fast packaging way : up to 100 palettes an hour can be packed with a single machine, and from one stretch hood reel it's possible to hood 1500 palettes !
  • There is a hermetic barrier between the pallet load and the external world.
  • This film cannot be placed manually, so if the palette arrives with a stretch hood on it, the customer has the guarantee that there has been no theft during the transport.
