Product protection, employee safety, and marketing are top concerns for all businesses.

Beyond the typical use of stretch film to bind products to pallets for the safe transport of goods, warehouses are investing in printed stretch film for added protection against warehouse theft and inventory pilferage. In addition, manufacturers can advertise their brand directly on these bundled packages during transport and storage. As a result, these companies can leverage additional marketing opportunities to outperform competitors.

At the same time, printed BOPP and polyolefin films provide outstanding brand solutions on the retail shelf. These solutions allow consumers a clear view of securely packaged products via transparent film and offer an ideal canvas for visual marketing and important consumer information.
