For many business houses, safe and efficient delivery of the shipping packets to the client or even to its warehouse is extremely crucial. Many try to manually wrap their pallets, but it proves quite a cumbersome and daunting task which leads to a lot of wastage as well as no guarantee of safe packaging. Thus, many companies are now realizing the various benefits and switching over to a semi-automatic or an automatic stretch wrap machine to take care of their packaging needs. For further convincing, we list down the various benefits of using a wrapping pallet machine.

Film Savings

We all know that the primary purpose of the stretch wrapping is to get the product intact at the doorstep of the customer in minimal cost. The unit has an inbuilt stretch film machine which pre-stretches the film even up to 250%. Again they wrap the load with the least amount of film and eliminate the need of unnecessary extra revolutions of film around the load. It is not possible with hand wrap. Neither can you stretch the film manually to such an extent nor can you avoid unnecessary wastage of film due to wrong wrapping, loose wrapping, ...
... etc. It helps you save a sizeable amount of money per year.

Consistent and uniform high level of application

Manually, it is not possible to wrap every load the same way and in an exact manner each and every time. However, with a wrapping machine, you would get the same and uniform high level of packing each and every time. The load is always secure with the tightest packing possible to ensure safety.

Professional package

With the machine, you get a clean, professional finished product in contrast to hand wrapping where you get an uneven and erratic look. Very few realize that the appearance of the package carries the professional image and brand value of your company. The wrapping machine ensures the right vibe and enhances the brand value of your enterprise with a crisp and professional wrapping.

Training

Not everyone is aware of the correct way to wrap a pallet with hand wrap. If done incorrectly, it may crush the product or make it shift and get damaged during transport. This makes it mandatory for the employers to continually train and refresh their employees on the correct method while safeguarding themselves. This can prove to be a costly venture. But a machine absolves the employer of all hassles. All it needs it to press a button and the wrapping ensues.

Employee safety

Hand wrapping job is a difficult job which can be dangerous as well and hurt an employee even if he is careless in the least manner. Thus, while doing the job, accidents and injuries are relatively common. It puts an additional hassle and concern for the employer as well as the employee. But the machine eliminates the problem from the core. It is extremely safe, and anybody can use it with no risk.

Load integrity

Hand wrapping can never be satisfactory. At some phase, the ‘good enough’ syndrome takes over. Throughout the period from the packing to delivery at the customer’s doorstep, it becomes critical to set the stretch wrapping specifications for the operators to follow. This responsibility of meeting tension requirement lies with the employee in hand wrapping of pallets. However, issues like fatigue, ignorance, lack of training or even motivation might impact the employee’s ‘good enough’ point and can lead to poorly packed pallets which can only have negative consequences. However, with a machine, the load integrity always remains intact.

Damage control

Hand wrapping is so robust and intricate a job that often the goal of the employee becomes just to get the package in wrapped condition outside the door. The main aim of wrapping the load to prevent damage during the transit gets lost. This can lead to loss of both goods and reputation. However, this risk gets eliminated with a wrapping machine.
