Rubber bands are often used when packaged goods need to be held together simply – for example, small boxes or light units on pallets. They are quick to use, require no machinery and are available in various lengths.
However, on closer inspection, it becomes clear that rubber bands are not a reliable solution for securing pallets in industrial environments. They quickly lose their adhesive strength under tension, slip easily and tear under heavy loads. Their weather resistance is also limited – heat or cold lead to material fatigue.
sanstrap® stretchbands have been specially developed for industrial load securing. They combine high elasticity with stable fixation – without any adhesive or fasteners. The straps can be used multiple times and are easy to stretch over boxes or products – both horizontally and vertically.
👉 Conclusion: Rubber bands may seem practical at first glance, but they quickly reach their limits in professional applications. sanstrap® is the smart alternative for anyone who values safety, efficiency and reusability.
