Bundling film is a type of stretch film specifically designed for unitising and securing smaller, lighter loads or multipacks. It’s commonly used in manual applications with a handheld dispenser or on bundling machines that apply the film around grouped products. Unlike standard stretch wrap used for pallets, bundling film is narrower—typically ranging from 50mm to 150mm wide—and is ideal for wrapping small cartons, bottles, tubes, or other grouped items.
What is Bundling Film Made From?
Bundling film is made from Linear Low-Density Polyethylene (LLDPE), a versatile and durable plastic known for its excellent stretchability, puncture resistance, and clarity. LLDPE provides the flexibility needed for the film to tightly conform around products while offering enough strength to keep them securely bundled during handling, storage, or transport.
Bundling film is widely used across various industries for:
- Multi-packaging consumer products such as bottled beverages, canned goods, and toiletries.
- Securing parts and small boxes in warehouses or production lines.
- Wrapping long or irregular-shaped items like metal rods, timber dowels, or piping.
- Protecting products from dust, dirt, and light handling damage.
- Holding items together for retail display or bulk sale.
- It's a preferred packaging solution when shrink wrap is too rigid or when tapes and strapping are not suitable.
