Flexible packaging is used to protect products in inventory or during transportation. As the name applies, it is a non-rigid material usually made from a plastic polymer.

Materials include polyethylene, polypropylene, polyester, and polyolefin. These packaging materials conform to the shape that it’s being packaged in. Therefore, this is unlike corrugated packaging, where items are packed into cardboard box and it’s far more rigid.

Stretch wrapping a skid correctly can prevent product damage and eliminate lost items during shipping.

These boxes were first secured with stretch wrap. Corner boards and a stretch roping technique were added for further support. Additional stretch wrap was applied to connect the boxes to the skid thus providing a tight and secured wrap.

Here are three key tactics to ensure the job is done well every time.

The perfect pallet

Try to find a pallet that fits the amount of boxes you are palletizing. This prevents the stretch wrap ripping on corners of the pallet. These boxes on the skid were first secured with stretch wrap.

Corner boards for security

Corner boards and a stretch roping technique were added for further support. Additional stretch wrap was applied to connect the boxes to the skid thus providing a tight and secured wrap. You know the skid is secured my giving the upper boxes a slight push if the boxes shift, you’ll need to add more shrink wrap shift.

Wrapping Up

Once the skid is secured, rip the film apart from the dispenser and tuck it under the edge of one of the shrink wrap layers. This will prevent your wrap from undoing. Sometimes packages are damaged when skids are double stacked in transit. In order to avoid this, add do not stack stickers and even a pallet cone to the skids to serve as reminders.

Often people do not put enough thought into preparing skids for transit. Sure, all of this takes a little extra time in the shipping department, however, it’s time well spent.
