Keep shipments safe and weatherproof with this patented unit

| By Chemical Engineering

Covered by a number of patents, the stretch hood method (photo) combines the advantages of shrink wrap and stretch wrap while avoiding the disadvantages of these traditional packaging methods. With the so-called biaxial stretch, the vertical expansion of the foil during the stretch procedure is expanded vertically by more than 5%. The residual expansion that results from this ensures that vertical tensions remain in the foil that have a decisive effect on transport safety, while also reducing consumption of packaging material. With biaxial stretch, excellent stacking stability persists, even after repeated transloading. With the unstretch technique, this firm ensures a weatherproof and shipment-safe loading unit.
