You Should Use Black Opaque Stretch Film

Finding the right stretch film for your packaging line is a crucial part of optimizing your supply chain. Even something as simple as the Black Opaque stretch wrap can completely change the way you move and handle product loads. That’s why many companies choose opaque stretch film to wrap their pallets.

Improving Tamper Evidence: Black Opaque stretch wrap can also 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 on 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.

Opaque Film Improves Product Protection: Some stretch film comes in opaque colors—usually in black or white options. Opaque colored stretch film creates a solid color that offers extra protection for the product load. The opaque color is more resistant to UV rays than clear stretch film, which helps protect products from the sun. Additionally, white opaque stretch film can offer enhanced heat protection for temperature-sensitive goods such as food and beverage products. Opaque colored stretch film also obscures pallet loads and hides the products, creating an extra level of privacy and security throughout the supply chain.
