Recently I have been asked the question “Is stretch film recyclable?” at least once a day. I figured I would post the answer to our blog so that all of you could have the answer:
Stretch film is made almost entirely of Linear Low Density Polyethylene (LLDPE) with small percentages of other types of polyethylene for property enhancement. All materials used in the production of film are completely recyclable as low density polyethylene. Low density polyethylene is a #4 recycled item which means it can be recycled, but does not necessarily mean that the material will be accepted at your local recycling plant.
We are proud to announce two new stretch film products we are currently carring.
1. The U.S. market is seeing a shift in the stretch film industry to lighter, stronger pallet wrap in both hand and machine grade film. Many top manufacturers have indicated that within 3 - 5 years the 80 gauge will no longer be sold in the market place because of current soaring cost to produce film.
This new line is called HYBRiD80 that will give distributors a break from high priced (me too 80 gauge) standard pallet film an opportunity to enhance their sales efforts. This line was created to help distributors develop new business, maintain profit margins and also to offer your customers something new to talk about.
2. Custom printing of pallet stretch wrap with low minimums, prepaid delivery nationwide. Lock in profitable re-orders for authorized distributors. Shipping and marketing benefits. Custom printed pallet wrap improves load appearance, cuts pilferage, advertise and deter tampering.
