Key Features Of China Hand Stretch Film
Product Overview
This transparent hand roll film is made for packing areas where pallets are wrapped by hand and carton information must stay visible. It is not only a clear plastic wrap; it needs to stretch evenly, cling to itself, and keep shipping labels, pallet numbers, and barcodes readable during warehouse handling.
The 500 mm width gives practical coverage for manual stretch wrap work without making the roll hard to control. For light or regular carton pallets, 15um and 17um grades are usually enough. For export pallets, mixed cartons, or longer transfer routes, 20um and 23um provide stronger load holding. A 25um grade can be tested when cartons have sharper edges or uneven stacking.
Roll weight should be checked before production confirmation. A roll marked 2.5 kg, 3 kg, or 4 kg may not contain the same usable film if the paper core is heavier. For repeat production, net film weight, gross roll weight, paper core weight, roll length, roll edge flatness, carton quantity, and retained sample should be confirmed together.
Benefits
- Keeps carton labels, shipping marks, batch codes, and barcodes visible after wrapping.
- 500 mm roll width gives balanced coverage for manual pallet wrapping stations.
- 15-25um thickness options match pallet weight, carton edge condition, and handling route.
- One-side cling helps layers hold together without making the outside surface too sticky.
- Smooth low-noise unwind makes repeated hand wrapping more comfortable.
- Flat roll edges and controlled winding help reduce film break during hand pulling.
- Net film weight and paper core weight can be checked before batch approval.
- Suitable as clear pallet wrap film for dry storage, logistics transfer, and export carton loads.
What Should Be Checked Before Comparing Net Weight, Gross Weight, and Paper Core Weight?
When comparing hand roll stretch film specifications, gross weight alone can be misleading. A heavier paper core may make the roll look heavier while reducing the actual film available for wrapping. For example, a 3 kg gross roll should be checked together with net film weight, paper core weight, core ID, roll length, and rolls per carton. During sample approval, the roll can be weighed before and after core removal to confirm real film weight.

Applications
- Manual wrapping of corrugated carton pallets in warehouses.
- Logistics packaging where barcode scanning and label visibility must remain clear.
- Export pallet protection against dust, dirt, and light moisture during handling.
- Distribution center hand wrapping stations for mixed SKU pallets.
- Factory packing areas where smooth unwind and stable cling are important.
- Export carton pallet securing before loading, warehousing, or logistics transfer.
- Light to medium pallet loads that require clear identification after wrapping.
- Clear pallet wrap film use where batch code and shipping mark checking remain part of daily work.
How Can Transparent Hand LLDPE Stretch Film Support Barcode Reading and Manual Wrapping?
Transparent film should prove its value on a wrapped pallet, not only on the roll. After wrapping, warehouse staff should still read carton labels, pallet numbers, and barcodes without cutting the film open. In a practical trial, the film can be wrapped over printed cartons and scanned from normal working distance. Operators should also check smooth unwind, even pulling around carton corners, and edge tearing after 3-5 wrapping layers.
FAQ
1. What thickness is suitable for transparent hand lldpe stretch film?
15um and 17um are often used for lighter carton pallets. 20um and 23um suit daily export pallet wrapping. 25um can be tested for heavier cartons, sharper edges, or longer handling routes.
2. Why should net film weight be confirmed separately?
Net film weight shows the real amount of usable film. Gross roll weight includes the paper core, so rolls with the same gross weight may contain different film amounts.
3. Can this clear hand stretch film keep barcodes readable after wrapping?
Yes. The film is designed for label visibility and barcode readability. Actual readability should be confirmed by wrapping and scanning real carton samples.
4. Where is this film normally used?
It is mainly used in manual warehouse, logistics, factory packing, and export pallet packaging stations where operators control wrapping tension by hand.
