Strapping bands – often made of polypropylene (PP), polyester (PET) or textile fibers – are used to secure palletized goods by wrapping them around. They are usually applied using a strapping tool and require sealing sleeves or welding.
Advantages: wide range of tape types for different applications, very high tear resistance, suitable for heavy or heavily loaded goods. However: cannot be reused, complicated to use, requires accessories or machines, hardly elastic → no tension when moving, sharp edges can damage the packaged goods.
sanstrap® stretchbands offer a smart alternative: they are easily applied by hand, adapt flexibly and require neither sleeves nor tools. Ideal for internal logistics, varying pallet heights and sensitive packaged goods.
Advantages over strapping tape:
- tool-free handling
- elastic & adaptable
- No cutting or slipping
- reusable
- Ideal for order picking and warehouse logistics
→ Greater efficiency and safety – without the need for tensioning devices.
