There are two methods of producing stretch wrap.

In pallet unitizing, stretch wrap can have several functions:

Because of this, many stretch wrap users opt for low cost hand wrappers such as "hand savers" or mechanical brake systems.

Stretch wrap or stretch film is a highly stretchable plastic film that is wrapped around items.

This often consists of items on a pallet unitized by stretch wrap, shrink wrap, pressure sensitive tape, or strapping.

Goods or shipping containers are often placed on a pallet secured with strapping, stretch wrap or shrink wrap and shipped.

A typical unit load might consist of corrugated fiberboard boxes stacked on a pallet or slip sheet and stabilized with stretch wrap, pressure sensitive tape, strapping or shrink wrap.

The most common stretch wrap material is linear low-density polyethylene or LLDPE, which is produced by copolymerization of ethylene with alpha-olefins, the most common of which are butene, hexene and octene.

Other cost-cutting measures made since last summer include switching long-distance telephone carriers at an annual savings of about $70,000 and renegotiating contracts with rental-car companies and with companies that supply chemical additives, stretch wrap and steel strapping.

Orbital stretch wrapping is a means of applying stretch film to a load consisting of a roll of stretch wrap supported on a vertical rotating ring and a means of passing a load through the ring's eye horizontally.

Within two hours, monitors, laptops, motherboards, typewriters, VCR's, televisions, stereos, copying machines, fax machines, cellphones, rotary phones, remote controls, calculators and a whole nest of mice were coming together in piles, cocooned in yards of stretch wrap and stacked in the back of the 28-foot truck.

It is the largest producer of stretch films in Asia.

With biomacromolecules flow orientation is often used, other methods include stretched films, magnetic fields, and squeezed gels.

However, Dilworth insisted on taking the production to his Stretch Films Studios.

Stretched film linear dichroism is a method of orientation based on incorporating the sample molecules into a polyethylene film.

Stretch wrap or stretch film is a highly stretchable plastic film that is wrapped around items.

Dilworth is the president of Stretch Films, a New York-based design and animation studio, which he founded in 1991.

The use of higher alpha-olefins (hexene or octene) gives rise to enhanced stretch film characteristics, particularly in respect of elongation at break and puncture resistance.

Stretch films are thin plastic films used for packaging and are replacing carton boxes which are bulkier and less flexible.

Risa Neuwirth, associate producer for Stretch Films in New York, worked with Mr. Stang on the episodes.

"No one stretches film more than the sports photographer - shooting in bad weather, in changing light, in unpredictable color temperatures - and the film has to take up the slack.

Extended core stretch wrappers are rolls of stretch film which have their internal core extended beyond their film roll creating a handle by which film can be wrapped.

ITW Mima Packaging Systems manufacture stretch films in Belgium and Ireland and stretch wrappers in Bulgaria and Finland.

In the UK, baled silage is most often made in round bales about 4 feet by 4 feet, individually wrapped with four to six layers of "bale wrap plastic" (black, white or green 25 micrometre stretch film).

Types of stretch film include bundling stretch film, hand stretch film, extended core stretch film, machine stretch film and static dissipative film.

Orbital stretch wrapping is a means of applying stretch film to a load consisting of a roll of stretch wrap supported on a vertical rotating ring and a means of passing a load through the ring's eye horizontally.

Haloila became part of the Illinois Tool Works (ITW) in 1995, shortly after this, ITW acquired the stretch film business from Mobil and ITW Mima Packaging System was formed.

Bell, with his assistant, devised a receiver, consisting of a stretched film or drum with a bit of magnetised iron attached to its middle, and free to vibrate in front of the pole of an electromagnet in circuit with the line.

ITW Mima Packaging Systems marketing group consists of Haloila, Mima Films (the producer of stretch films in Belgium and Ireland) and ITW Mima Service (which has maintenance service centres across Europe).

MOBIL CORP., Fairfax, Va., said its Mobil Plastics Europe subsidiary was in talks to sell its stretch films business to Illinois Tool Works Inc., of Greenville, Ill., a maker of specialty tools and industrial components.
