We’ve all been there. Whether it’s at home and boxing up those Christmas presents to send across the country to loved ones or, in this new age of ebay, sending items hoping that they will arrive unharmed with your makeshift packaging. In the business world it’s the same concept. Getting the product to it’s destination in the very same condition as it was sent is key to keeping customers. Unfortunately sometimes packing tape is not the answer for assuring the product gets there safe and sound. Poly strapping adds that extra security where sometimes packing tape fails.
There are many types of poly strapping and accessories available on the market. Hand grade polypropylene strapping is user friendly. It can be easily applied with hand tools for those low and moderate volume applications. This form of poly strapping has high elongation and elongation recovery with low tension retention. In Lehman’s terms, hand grade poly strapping will stretch for a tight secure fit, but once it has been stretched the banding will not retract.
