Manufacturing Machine Stretch Wrap
At Tilak Polypack, we are dedicated to manufacturing high-quality machine stretch wrap that offers exceptional performance and reliability. Our manufacturing process and outstanding features set us apart from others in the industry.
We produce machine stretch wrap with precision and consistency using state-of-the-art machinery and advanced techniques. The process involves feeding a roll of polyethylene film into a specialized machine that stretches the film while wrapping it around a load. This stretching process enhances the film’s elasticity and provides excellent load containment. The stretched film is then wound onto a core, resulting in a tightly secured wrap suitable for machine application.
Tilak Polypack is one of the leading manufacturers and suppliers of Machine Stretch Film in the world. With a presence in countries such as US, Singapore, Australia, Germany, Canada, New Zealand, United Kingdom, Ireland, Scotland and Norway, Tilak Polypack has established itself as a trusted provider of high-quality Machine Stretch Film.
Machine Stretch Wrap / Film Features
- High transparency
- No discoloration
- Has Tensile properties
- Eco friendly
- Non toxic
- High packaging flexibility
- Cost saving package
These machine stretch wraps are highly stretchable as well as have great strength that withstands wear and tear at the time of transit of goods or at the time of loading and unloading of goods. Once these films are stretched to the highest the more it is stretched the more it has the capability to prevent the goods or the products from getting damaged.
We offer films that are one sided and two sided and have a differential cling capability.

FAQs
1. What is machine stretch film?
Machine stretch film is a high-performance plastic film specifically designed for use with automated or semi-automated stretch wrapping equipment. It is used to securely wrap and protect products or pallets during storage, handling, or transportation. Manufactured to provide consistent tension and stretch, it adheres to rigorous quality standards to ensure optimal load stability.
2. How does machine stretch film differ from manual stretch film?
Machine stretch film is optimized for use with stretch wrapping machines, offering greater precision and efficiency compared to manual stretch film. It is engineered to achieve higher stretch rates (up to 300%-400%), better strength, and consistent film application, whereas manual stretch film relies on hand-applied tension and is suitable for smaller operations. The consistent application of machine stretch film ensures uniform load containment, reducing the risk of product damage.
3. What industries typically use machine stretch film?
Machine stretch film is widely utilized in industries such as:
- Manufacturing and Industrial Packaging
- Warehouse and Distribution Centers
- Food and Beverage Production
- Pharmaceutical and Medical Supplies
- Construction Materials and Hardware
- Retail and E-commerce Warehousing
It is an ideal solution for operations that require rapid, repeatable, and reliable packaging.
4. How is machine stretch film applied using a stretch wrapping machine?
Machine stretch film is applied using a stretch wrapping machine, which automates the wrapping process. The procedure involves the following steps:
- The product or pallet is placed onto the turntable or conveyor of the stretch wrapping machine.
- The machine dispenses and pre-stretches the film according to the desired tension settings.
- The film is evenly wrapped around the products or pallet as the machine rotates or moves vertically, ensuring full coverage and stability.
- Once the wrapping is complete, the film is cut automatically, leaving the load protected and secure.
5. What are the benefits of using machine stretch film for packaging?
The advantages include:
- Enhanced Load Stability: Prevents shifting or damage during transit.
- Improved Efficiency: Automates the packaging process, saving time and labor.
- Cost Savings: Reduces film waste and increases productivity through pre-stretch technology.
- Uniform Application: Ensures consistent wrapping for better load containment.
- Durability: Provides excellent puncture resistance and strength.
6. Can machine stretch film be used for both large and small items?
Yes, machine stretch film is versatile and can be used for securing large pallets as well as smaller items. The film is available in different widths, thicknesses, and stretch capacities, making it adaptable for various product sizes and shapes.
7. What is the stretch capacity of machine stretch film?
Machine stretch film is engineered with high stretch capabilities, typically ranging from 150% to 400%, depending on the grade and type. This means that one foot of film can stretch up to 4 feet while maintaining its strength and integrity. Pre-stretch functions in machines maximize this efficiency, reducing material usage while ensuring secure wrapping.
8. How do you select the right type of machine stretch film for different products?
Choosing the appropriate film depends on several factors:
- Weight and Size of the Load: Heavier loads may require a stronger gauge.
- Shape of the Products: Irregular shapes may need more elastic film for better containment.
- Environmental Conditions: Consider whether the load will be exposed to moisture, dust, or extreme temperatures during transport or storage.
- Type of Machine Used: Some films are specifically designed for high-speed or rotary-arm machines.
Consulting with a knowledgeable supplier can help you identify the optimal type of film for your specific application.
9. Is machine stretch film recyclable or eco-friendly?
Yes, most machine stretch films are recyclable, provided they are disposed of at appropriate recycling facilities. Many manufacturers prioritize sustainability by offering films made of recyclable polyethylene (PE) materials. Additionally, advances in technology have introduced biodegradable stretch films and thinner films with the same strength, minimizing environmental impact.
10. What are the different grades of machine stretch film available in the market?
Machine stretch films come in a variety of grades to meet diverse application needs:
- Standard Machine Film: Suitable for general-purpose use, offering a balance of strength and cost.
- High-Performance Film: Engineered for higher stretch ratios and superior load containment, ideal for heavy-duty applications.
- Pre-Stretched Film: Pre-stretched during manufacturing to reduce material usage and increase operational efficiency.
- Colored or Opaque Film: Used for coding, branding, or concealing sensitive items.
