Finding the right stretch film for your packaging line is an important part of optimizing your supply chain. Let’s learn all about the reasons you should use colored stretch film and explore different strategies for making the most of your stretch wrap with this guide.
1, Same Protection and Durability As Standard Film
For the most part, colored stretch film functions in the exact same way as clear stretch wrap. It’s still a plastic film that stretches and wraps around product loads to stabilize them and secure them to a pallet. As such, colored stretch film is ideal for wrapping pallets so that you can move them safely through the supply chain. However, the unique coloring also makes it useful for color coding products, protecting loads, and promoting consistent branding.
2, Conceals the shipment (deterring theft and making load tampering quick to identify)
Colored Stretch Film also helps 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.
Colored 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.
3, Great for product coding within your storage facility (quickly and efficiently identify product loads)
Colored stretch film allows you to color code different product loads. This ability is extremely useful for facilities that handle a wide range of product types every day. You can also keep track of priority products or time- or temperature-sensitive loads by color coding them. For example, if a grocery distributor wraps all their frozen loads in blue, then stores will know to unload blue pallets into the freezer as soon as they arrive.
You can also color code products by the day you create or ship the pallet. All pallets that leave your facility on a certain day will have the same color of wrapping. For example, you can use blue stretch film for every palate you create and ship on Mondays, red stretch film for pallets on Tuesdays, green for Wednesdays, and so on.
4, Improves your load appearance when shipping to customers (colored plastic wrap looks amazing on full pallet loads)
You can use colored stretch wrap to mark your pallets as property of your business. This added layer of branding creates consistency among your products and makes your pallets instantly recognizable to distributors. Additionally, improving brand recognition with colored stretch wrap brings a sense of exclusivity to your products. Use this method to make your product loads stand out in the industry—even behind the scenes.
