Steel strapping is considered the classic solution for securing heavy loads. It offers extremely high tensile strength and is processed with locking clips or tensioning tools – often for machines, large containers or export goods.
However, this securing method has clear weaknesses in modern logistics: Disposable items with high material usage. High risk of injury due to sharp edges. Can only be used with tools and expertise. Non-elastic – can slip during movement.
sanstrap® stretchbands offer a safe, ergonomic alternative for many applications – especially for internal transport and variable load sizes. They are flexible, reusable and require no tools.
Advantages over steel strapping:
- no risk of injury
- tool-free handling
- flexible and adaptable
- No metal waste
- reusable & recyclable
