FAQ
At HILUX POLY, we understand that choosing the right pallet wrapping solution is important for protecting your products and improving packaging efficiency. Below are answers to some of the most common questions our customers ask about pallet wrap products and their proper usage.
Why is Hilux Poly stretch film better than standard market film?
Hilux Poly stretch film is engineered for higher performance with working stretch of 300–400% and elongation up to 500%. This allows for improved load containment, reduced film usage, and more consistent wrapping results compared to standard market films.
How does your film reduce cost per pallet?
Our film is designed for efficiency. Higher stretch capability means less material is required per pallet. Combined with increased roll weight (2.43kg vs typical 1.5kg), this results in fewer roll changes and lower overall packaging costs.
Can I downgrade from 23µ to 17µ film?
Yes, in many applications downgauging is possible. Our high-performance 17µ film can often replace 23µ-25µ films, delivering similar performance while reducing material usage by up to 20–30%.
Which thickness should I choose?
17µ – Light to Medium loads
23µ – Irregulat Medium to Heavy loads
Selection depends on load type, handling conditions, and stability requirements.
23µ – Irregulat Medium to Heavy loads
Selection depends on load type, handling conditions, and stability requirements.
Do I need a dispenser to use stretch film?
Not necessarily. While standard core rolls work best with dispensers, we offer:
~ Extended core options for manual use
~ Plastic hand protectors for improved grip without a dispenser.
~ Extended core options for manual use
~ Plastic hand protectors for improved grip without a dispenser.
What is the difference between standard core and extended core?
Standard core requires a dispenser for application. Extended core rolls have built-in handles, allowing easier manual use without additional equipment.
Clear vs Black stretch film – which should I use?
Clear film allows visibility and barcode scanning
Black film provides security and concealment during transit.
Black film provides security and concealment during transit.
How many pallets can one roll wrap?
This depends on wrapping technique and load size, but due to higher stretch performance and increased roll weight, Hilux Poly typically achieves 25-35% more pallets per roll compared to standard market alternatives.
Is your film recyclable?
Yes, our film also includes 30%+ recycled content and is designed to support sustainability goals while maintaining performance.
