Pallet wrap offers savings
Gloucester, United KingdomGolden Valley Pallet Wrap Specialists (GVPS) has launched Fusion 33, a new machine-applied pallet wrap that, the company says, will save users up to 80% of their pallet wrap costs.
"Fusion 33 represents a micro-technology advancement that will deliver substantial stretch efficiencies in excess of any other substrate on the market, which means less wrapping is needed to achieve optimum palletised load stability," explains managing director Martyn Sumner.
Golden Valley says that not only will Fusion 33 reduce costs per pallet wrapped, but the material's inherent strength means it offers exceptional pallet retention capability.
