Stretch Film

Choosing the wrong gauge of hand stretch film is one of those costs that doesn't show up as a line item — it shows up as torn film halfway through a pallet, loads that shift in transit, and warehouse staff rewrapping the same pallet twice. Getting the gauge right is a small decision with a measurable impact on material cost, wrapping time, and load security. This guide covers everything you need to make that call: what the standard gauges are, where each one is typically used, how regional markets differ, and how to match thickness to your actual load profile.
