Critical points
HIPAC solutions
We have developed two products for this sector:
- 999 Extra-rigid: pre-stretched film in ultra-thin thickness. The film is rigid, tough and has reinforced edges for greater resistance during application. The reel is anti-shock and will not be damaged if dropped on the ground (recommended thickness: 5-7 µm).
- 555 Rigid: reduces the amount of film used for packaging by up to 50%. It is extremely tough and conforms to pallet irregularities. The NetRoll version without cardboard core, used with the Hipac Handynet dispenser, protects the reel if it accidentally falls to the ground. The film is available with reinforced edges for double strength (recommended thickness: 7-12 µm).
Both products are available in a Low Temperature version, specifically developed for use in cold storage.
