Hand wrapping pallets is an extremely difficult job even if it's done correctly and a common source of employee injuries when performed incorrectly.
The cost of these work related injuries & accidents caused by hand wrapping pallets are never considered until its too late.
Pallet wrapping with a stretch wrap machine eliminates this issue and has other great benefits too.
1. Hand rolls that have been damaged through being left on the floor or left lying around can sometimes add up to at least 20% of your hand wrapping costs. A stretch wrapper would stop this from happening.
2. A consistent application, an operator will not be able to consistently wrap a pallet the same way every time, whereas a stretchwrapper can be pre-programmed to wrap every pallet the same way.
3. Wrapping a pallet using a stretch wrap machine produces a clean professional finished product.
4. Damage control. As employees deal with the difficulty of hand wrapping the goal becomes just wrapping it enough to get it out the door. Wrapping the load to eliminate damage during transit and at your customer's warehouse can become secondary.
5. Although the key to stretch wrapping is to make sure that we get the product to the customer intact, we all want to do it for the least amount of cost. With the machine set to wrap the loads with the least amount of stretch film required to hold the load together, you eliminate unnecessary extra revolutions of film being applied by well meaning operators. At a point, more film does not hold the load better, it is just waste.
Prices start from as £170 per month on finance over 36 months.
