Pre-Stretched Hand Stretch Film

Yuhong pre-stretched hand stretch film, also known as pre-stretched hand wrap or lightweight pre-stretched film, is manufactured by Xiamen Yuhong Plastic Products Co., Ltd., a packaging film producer established in 2008. The film is stretched to a controlled ratio during production before winding, helping reduce the pulling force required during manual pallet wrapping. This supports more consistent wrap tension, improves load stability, and helps reduce operator fatigue. Because the film is pre-stretched before use, it can also help lower film consumption per pallet compared with regular hand stretch film.

Yuhong operates a 3,000 m² production facility in Xiamen, China, with more than 50 employees and an annual production capacity of approximately 5,000 tons. The company is ISO 9001:2015 certified and produces hand stretch film, machine stretch film, and other packaging films for customers in China and overseas markets, including Southeast Asia, Europe, and North America.

Why Pre-Stretched Hand Film Is Used

In manual pallet wrapping, the force applied by each operator varies. Pre-stretched hand film reduces this variation because the film has already been stretched during production. This results in more uniform wrap tension and better load stability from operator to operator.

Reduced Operator Fatigue

Since the film is pre-stretched, workers do not need to pull hard to achieve the required tension. This can reduce shoulder and arm fatigue during long shifts, especially in operations wrapping a high number of pallets per day.

Lower Film Consumption per Pallet

Because the film is pre-stretched during production, less film is typically needed to achieve the required wrapping tension. Compared with regular hand stretch film, pre-stretched hand film can help reduce film use per pallet by approximately 25–30%, depending on the load type, wrapping method, and application conditions. This can lower material waste and overall packaging cost.

Consistent Wrap Appearance

Pre-stretched hand wrap produces a more uniform appearance across pallets. Since the stretching is done by machine rather than by individual workers, the wrap tension is more stable, which can improve load presentation for customers and reduce the risk of loose or crushed packages.

Technical Specifications

The following table lists typical values for Yuhong pre-stretched hand film. Products are tested according to BB/T 0024-2018.

Full technical data sheets are available on request. Each production batch is checked before shipment, and quarterly third-party SGS spot testing is conducted to verify compliance with the relevant standard.

Pre-Stretched Hand Film vs Regular Hand Film

Applications

Pre-stretched hand stretch film is used in various manual pallet wrapping environments. Common applications include:

• Warehouses and distribution centers: Daily outbound pallet wrapping where consistent tension and lower operator fatigue are important.
• Logistics and transport: Pallet stabilization for road and container transport, helping to reduce load shifting.
• Manufacturing plants: Wrapping finished goods, work-in-progress, and incoming parts.
• Furniture and electronics: Protecting delicate products without excessive compression, while maintaining load stability.

Customization

Yuhong supports custom specifications for pre-stretched hand film. Adjustable parameters include:

• Film thickness: Standard 15 μm, with other gauges available according to load requirements.
• Roll width and length: Matched to existing dispensers and pallet sizes.
• Color options: Clear is standard; colored film is available for inventory coding or tamper evidence.
• Printed cores: Brand logos can be printed on paper cores for distributor branding.
• Export cartons: Custom printing on outer cartons is available.

Packaging and Shipping

Each roll is individually sealed in a polyethylene bag to protect against moisture and dust. Rolls are packed in 5-ply export corrugated cartons with internal protection to prevent movement. For pallet orders, wooden supports and edge protectors are used. Loading photos are provided before shipment so customers can verify packing and container loading.

Quality Control

Yuhong follows a documented quality management process under ISO 9001:2015. Production equipment includes blown film extrusion lines, automatic winders, precision cutters, and online thickness monitoring. Quality control includes:

• Raw material inspection: Incoming resin is checked before production.
• Real-time monitoring: Thickness is monitored continuously during extrusion.
• Shift testing: Samples are pulled each shift for thickness, cling, and unwind performance.
• Third-party verification: SGS performs quarterly spot tests according to BB/T 0024-2018. RoHS compliance is verified by SGS, and SOI performance certification is available from GALAB Laboratory, Germany.

Test records and certification documents are archived and can be provided to customers for audits or compliance reviews.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Can I test the film before ordering?

Yes. Sample rolls are available. Customers cover the courier cost, which can be deducted from the first formal order.

2. What certifications does this film have?

The production facility is ISO 9001:2015 certified. The film meets EU RoHS standards, verified by SGS. Quarterly SGS performance test reports are available on request.

3. What is the minimum order quantity?

For standard sizes, the MOQ is typically one 20-foot container. For custom specifications such as width, thickness, printed cores, or branded cartons, the MOQ is confirmed on a case-by-case basis.
