Blown Film Makes the Best Opaque Pallet Stretch Wrap
Using black opaque film either by hand or on a machine, we feel blown film has the true opaque black needed to cover the pallet in one go around the pallet. Cast black film is more of a tint and requires more times around the pallet to make it opaque. Cast is great option if noise is an issue (wrapping near offices), as it is almost silent coming off the roll.
Black Opaque Blown Stretch Wrap can help with supply chain security by acting as tamper-evident packaging. For example, using Black film will prevent people from seeing what products are wrapped in the pallet. Many pharmaceutical companies use this process.
Opaque stretch wrap is also less common and harder to come by than standard stretch film. This means that thieves or other parties with ill intentions will have a harder time re-wrapping pallets accurately after stealing from or otherwise tampering with them. As a result, tampering is more immediately obvious, which allows you to act quickly to catch the guilty party and/or prevent the issue from happening again.
Most important is the top of the pallet. Put a black opaque top-sheet there and wrap it up. Now you have opaque secure pallet wrapped covered on all five sides of the pallet.
