Blown Film Makes the Best Opaque Pallet Stretch Wrap

Image
  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 part...

Vegetable and Produce Packaging

Image
Keep Your Vegetables Fresh with the Right Packaging: Today, fresh produce must travel long distances from farms to consumers. Recent studies have found that this distance can be up to 1,500 miles. The farther food must travel, the more its freshness declines, and the more nutrients are lost. That’s why it’s so important to use the right vegetable packaging, as it plays a crucial role in preserving nutritional value. Technical Advancements Improve Nutritional Value: The nutritional value of vegetables can degrade due to various factors such as exposure to air, moisture, and temperature changes. The right packaging materials mitigate these issues by creating a controlled environment that slows down the degradation process. Recent technological advancements have introduced materials and methods that significantly enhance the preservation of vegetables. Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP ): MAP is traditionally used to preserve the freshness of produce, meats, and fish by controlling...
