3.  What colour film do you require?


                 Omni Stretch Film is available in multiple colours for a variety of purposes.
                 These include clear, black, white, red, blue, green, yellow.
                 Some of the common uses if coloured film are :

                 •  Security and Privacy – our Black and white stretch wraps are an opaque film which
                   offers added security and privacy for your pallets

                 •  Reduce heat damage – white stretch wrap doesn’t attract heat so is great for palletising
                   products that are not heat tolerant

                 • Pallet Identification – our range of translucent coloured films provide the solution to
                   pallet identification


           4.   If you have a pallet wrapper, what type is it and does it have
               a power pre-stretch?

                 A power pre-stretch is a feature on a pallet wrappers which maximises the film stretch yield.
                 It has rollers on the film delivery system turn at different speeds to cause the film to stretch
                 at adjustable levels. This allows the film to get pre-stretch to over 400% before applying
                 on the pallet, significantly reducing film usage. Only high performance films will have this
                 stretch ability.

           5.   What Type of Product is being wrapped?

                 The weight of the load and product type that is being wrapped must be considered
                 when selecting a suitable film type and gauge.

           6.   What is the distance, time and environment the pallets

               are being shipped in?

                 The distance and method of shipment are important considerations when selecting the
                 right film. Pallets being transferred across long distances in a flatbed truck or by rail would
                 require a different film than a product shipped a short distance by truck or inter-plant.
