Selecting the type of stretch film for your application depends on the types of products on the load and the number of puncture points.
There are 4 main categories of load types
Containers are all uniform in shape and closely match the size of the pallet; few puncture points exist and each load generally looks the same
Less uniform than Type A loads; some puncture points exist; typically only 2 or 3 products per load
Inconsistency in load types; often many puncture points and unpredictable containers; each load may contain dozens of different items
Regardless of load type, there are also specialty applications such as heavy weight or UVI protection.
