Nano stretch film, sometimes called nano pallet wrap, is one of the biggest changes in pallet wrapping in recent years. If you’ve been offered it and want to know what it actually is, and whether it would work on your pallets, this guide explains it in plain English.
Nano stretch film is machine stretch film made from many ultra-thin layers co-extruded together. Instead of relying on one thick film for its strength, it builds strength from layers.
Layering gives a thin film more strength and stretch than a conventional film. In practice, that means you can use a thinner film, stretch it further and still hold the load securely.
Our Nanofilm range is built from 67 nano-layers, from 10 microns thin, with stretch of up to 380%.
They’re the same thing. Nano pallet wrap is simply another name for nano stretch film, used by many warehouses and suppliers.
Nanofilm is built for demanding, high-volume machine wrapping. For heavy, tall or awkward loads, fibre-reinforced FiberFilm is often the better fit. Our guide to choosing between Nanofilm and FiberFilm explains the difference.
Compare all our machine stretch film ranges side by side: Nanofilm, FiberFilm and 250%.
Every machine and every load is different, so the only reliable test is your own line. We’ll measure your current film per pallet, run Nanofilm against it and show you the difference in containment, cost per pallet and consistency, in writing. Book a free benchmark.
