At HILUX POLY, we understand that choosing the right pallet wrapping solution is important for protecting your products and improving packaging efficiency. Below are answers to some of the most common questions our customers ask about pallet wrap products and their proper usage.

What is pallet wrap used for?

Pallet wrap, also known as stretch film, is used to secure items on a pallet to keep them stable during storage and transportation. HILUX POLY pallet wrap helps prevent load shifting, protects products from dust and moisture, and reduces the risk of damage during shipping.

How do I choose the right pallet wrap?

Choosing the right pallet wrap depends on factors such as load weight, product type, and wrapping method. Lightweight loads typically require thinner film, while heavy or irregular loads require thicker and stronger wrap. The HILUX POLY team can help recommend the most suitable pallet wrap based on your packaging needs.

What is the difference between hand wrap and machine wrap?

Can pallet wrap protect products from moisture and dust?

What thickness of pallet wrap should I use?

The thickness of pallet wrap depends on the size, weight, and shape of your load. Thinner films are suitable for lighter loads, while thicker films are recommended for heavy or sharp-edged products. Using the correct thickness improves load stability and reduces unnecessary material usage.
