Why use Stretch Film

Joseph Coupal - Monday, November 14, 2011

Stretch film or Stretch wrap is a stretchable plastic that is wrapped around pallets or any item that you need stored or shipped. The elasticity of the plastic keeps the items tightly wrapped and contained. Shrink Wrap is loosely wrapped around an item or items and heat is applied for shrink wrapping.

Stretch film and shrink wrap are both used to make pallets into singled units for loading and storage, but it is also used for bundling smaller items.

Types of stretch film include bundling stretch film, hand stretch film, extended core stretch film, machine stretch film and static free film.

Hand Held Film, Poly Stretch Film is available depending on your application. Additionally, from your most expensive Poly Shrink Film and Polyolefin Shrink Wrap Film to your more economical alternatives Atlantic Poly can save you money, contact us.

Protect the Environment and Employees

Joseph Coupal - Tuesday, November 01, 2011

Construction and demolition companies as well as manufacturers and hospitals should use drum liners.  In so many industries there is the potential to exposure of hazardous chemicals or blood and body fluids.
 
Spills of these materials in the work environment or in the waste disposal centers pose health risks to employees and the environment.

The use of drum liners affords additional security against leaks and spills. DrumSkins™, Poly Plastic Drum Liners provide an extra level of safety, reliability and protection, especially when used for dense or viscous materials. Drum liners are the perfect solution in keeping chemical contents separated from other materials and waste products.  

Using drum liners will help maintain the level of safety and security that your workplace needs. If you need to maintain high standards of safety or OSHA regulations, look into the use of drum liners.  

Chemicals such as oils, fuels and other materials can all contribute to pollution and the many chemicals in the making of products and the resulting wastes are made and/or used in manufacturing. Drum liners can add an additional layer of safety and security to people's health and the immediate surroundings.

Atlantic Poly Inc provides a sensible, cost-effective and environmentally friendly method for storing, mixing and processing liquids, pastes and powders. Contact us for a quote.
