Stretch O MaxTM BalcanPlastics /First Film Extruding
Stretch O Max™ can be better than stretch wrap • Less wrapping material: A single stretch hood bag replaces a combination of stretch wrap + strapping + pallet cover. • Full automation: Save labor and process supervision. • Better branding: Print your logo and company name on all sides rather than on top and 2 sides. • Save on warehousing costs with outdoor storage: Stretch hood is more weather resistant. • New Stretch O MaxTM film of Balcan/First Film has excellent load retention, puncture and stretch-ability.
Stretch O Max™ Process Step 1: Gathering of the right length film over the 4 horns Step 2: Film sealing for a hood or film cutting for a sleeve Step 3: Stretching up to 90% to fit over the load Step 4: Film pulled down by the horns and released Step 5: Last part of the film is released under the load Overall process: 20 – 60 seconds depending on machine
