You can source polypropylene and polyester strapping (aka banding) materials to help you to secure a package, hold bundled products together, and contain similar items together. Strapping keeps products uniform, like bundling stacks of corrugated material together, for example. It protects products from movement either in storage or during shipment.
With a strapping machine in place, it is easier and more efficient to send your product through your production line.
Strapping is extremely strong and dependable for bundling and containment of heavy-duty items.
Strapping materials are great for securing totes for warehousing.
Great for securing multiple lengths or sizes of tubing or plumbing materials together for shipping and protection.
Strapping is great for rigid containment. Better strapped than wrapped!
Strong plastic bands are great for shipping crates of frozen items, can withhold cold temperatures.

Here are some of the most common questions we are asked when it comes to strapping materials and implementing them in production lines.
This depends on what you are strapping with. If you are using a machine, it will generally have specific requirements. Something else to consider would be the weight of your product. If something is very heavy, you will need a thicker strapping material.
Yes, you can run any strapping brand on your machines as long as it fits the machine size requirements.
In our experience, recyclable strapping tends to cause more dust and buildup in strapping machinery. This requires additional maintenance and cleaning to run efficiently.
This will depend on the size of your package and how many straps you will be using on each finished good. You can work with a packaging solutions specialist to determine what will work best for your production.
You can apply a strap with an automated machine or a strapping tool. You would need a buckle to secure the strapping around your product in manual applications. In semiautomatic and automatic strapping machines, the strapping is applied with heat and friction. The fibers grab onto one another and seal together with a quick heat application.
