Clear cast hand stretch film for securing cartons, trays and irregular loads during storage and transport. Choose from compact 250mm rolls for bundling or 500mm pallet-wrap formats in a range of lengths and film gauges, all supplied as four rolls per box.

Key Features

  • Nine size and film-gauge combinations
  • Clear cast film keeps labels and carton markings visible
  • High elasticity conforms closely to mixed and irregular loads
  • Every variant supplied as four rolls per box
  • 250mm rolls include four reusable handles
  • 500mm rolls include four free end caps
  • Thicknesses from 9mu to 30mu for different load demands

Why Choose This Product

This range lets you match the film to the job instead of over-wrapping every load with the same heavy gauge. Lighter films stretch efficiently around stable cartons, while thicker options provide more puncture resistance for sharp corners, mixed pallets and demanding handling. The two 250mm formats are especially useful for bundling smaller items without wrestling with a full-width roll.

Simply Hospitality Notes

The cheapest roll is not always the lowest-cost wrap. A film that is too light may need extra revolutions or fail around corners, while an unnecessarily heavy film adds material cost. Start with the lightest gauge that holds the actual load reliably, then standardise it for staff consistency.

Product Guide

Choose 250mm film for bundling small cartons, packs and narrow items; choose 500mm film for full pallet wrapping. Within each width, use the lower micron options for uniform, stable cartons and step up to 17–30mu where loads are heavier, more irregular or more likely to puncture the film. Every option is sold by the box of four rolls.

Choosing the Right Film

Use width, roll length and film thickness together when selecting a variant. The 250mm rolls suit bundling, narrow cartons and smaller products. The 500mm rolls cover palletised loads more quickly. Lower-micron film offers more metres per roll and is efficient for clean, stable cartons, while higher-micron film is the better choice for heavy, uneven or sharp-edged loads where puncture and tear resistance matter more.

Application Advice

Anchor the film securely at the base, overlap each pass and increase the number of wraps around load transitions, corners and the pallet base. Apply consistent tension without overstretching the film to the point that it necks excessively or crushes the cartons. Stretch film supports load stability but does not replace strapping or edge protection where the load requires them.

Storage

Store rolls upright in their cartons, away from direct sunlight, excessive heat, dust and sharp objects. Keeping the film clean and protected helps it unwind smoothly and preserves its cling and stretch performance.
