Choosing the right stretch film means balancing thickness, stretchability, and the type of application (manual or automatic). A film that is too thin can lead to product damage, while one that is too thick unnecessarily increases costs. ATU Solutions consultants help you identify the optimal combination for your business.
PP straps (polypropylene) are ideal for light and medium loads, being more economical. PET straps (polyester) offer superior strength and flexibility, recommended for heavy and unstable pallets. Atu Solutions recommends the right solution based on the application and the equipment used.
If you frequently package over 15-20 pallets per day, an automatic machine can significantly reduce your working time and film consumption. Additionally, you achieve uniform results and reduce the risk of accidents. The ATU Solutions team analyzes your current process and offers you the most efficient solution.
Premium film stretches better, adheres correctly, and provides superior protection. Although it seems more expensive, you can actually save up to 30% due to reduced usage per pallet. At Atu Solutions, we use only film produced in the EU, tested for industrial performance.
The most common mistakes are: choosing the wrong type of film or tape, insufficient packaging of products, incorrect stretching of the film, and using faulty or irregular equipment. These errors increase the risk of product damage and overall costs. An assessment provided by Atu Solutions can identify these problems and propose effective solutions.
For many, packaging seems like a simple operational cost. In reality, it is a strategic investment. A well-optimized process reduces losses, increases productivity, and improves transportation safety. Atu Solutions treats packaging as an integral part of the logistics chain — with a direct impact on profitability.
Stretch films react to temperature changes: in cold weather, they become rigid and difficult to apply, while in excessive heat they may stretch too much and lose tension. Therefore, selecting the right type of film (standard or power stretch) according to storage and transportation conditions is essential — and the consultants at Atu Solutions can guide you accurately.
In export, goods go through multiple handling and transportation processes. Poor packaging means an increased risk of damage, returns, and loss of reputation. The quality of packaging becomes a key factor in maintaining product integrity. With the premium products from Atu Solutions, you can be assured that each pallet arrives intact, anywhere in the world.
