What makes a good packaging film?
Strength, stretchability, barrier properties – different films for different applications.
Packaging films are more than just protective material. They safeguard products during transport, storage and export, reduce waste and save costs. But what really matters in a high-quality film? The key factors are strength, stretchability and barrier properties – and this is where Safe Pack excels with tailored, high‑quality film solutions.
1. Film strength – reliable protection with less material
Film thickness is crucial for tear resistance, puncture resistance and stability. Typically: thicker = stronger. However, too much thickness also means higher material costs.
Safe Pack relies on reduced‑thickness films that still provide the performance of thicker films:
- High tear and puncture resistance with less material usage
- Optimized stretch for secure pallet stabilization
- Cost‑efficient and sustainable: less material, lower transport volumes
This combines safety, cost‑effectiveness and sustainability – a clear benefit for export packers and industrial applications.
2. Stretchability – tailored stretch films
Stretchability determines how far a film can be elongated without tearing. It enables stable wrapping and keeps loads firmly in place.
Safe Pack offers practical solutions:
- Converting machines cut stretch films to the exact widths and lengths required
- Films retain recovery force and tension stability – even over long transport routes
- Material‑efficient: only as much film as needed, without compromising safety and stability
The result: custom‑fit films precisely matched to products and transport conditions.
3. Barrier properties – TL films for compliant product protection
Barrier properties define how well a film protects against external influences: moisture, dust, mechanical stress or UV radiation.
Safe Pack TL films deliver top standards:
- Available in various thicknesses for different products and protection needs
- Compliant with DIN 8135‑0019 and recognized by the HPE Association
- Reliable protection against moisture, dirt and transport damage – even under harsh conditions
This combines standards compliance, flexibility and maximum product safety.
In a nutshell
- Strength – reliable protection with reduced material usage
- Stretchability – stable, tailored stretch films
- Barrier properties – e.g. TL films for compliant export packaging
Safe Pack delivers practical, high‑quality solutions that meet the demands of export packers and industry: simple, safe, pack.
