Why great equipment matters when you wrap pallets by hand...

Wrapping pallets by hand may seem like a straightforward and simple task, but in the fast paced world of logistics, it’s a critical part of your distribution process. Ensuring the safety of your products during the last mile delivery. Hand pallet wrapping equipment impacts; efficiency, cost, and even safety. By using a high quality hand pallet wrapping dispenser you can enhance the way in which your entire supply chain operates. 

The hidden costs of poor hand pallet wrapping...

  • Wasted Film: When pallets are wrapped using a poor hand pallet wrapping technique, or equipment that is not up to scratch, you find yourself using more film. Why? Because by using a standard hand pallet wrapping piece of equipment, you aren’t able to achieve the same tension or stability, resulting in you applying more layers of film. Hand pallet wrapping dispensers like BOLT you can change the wrapping tension, resulting in only using the amount of pallet wrap you need.
  • Poor Use of Resource: If your team are hand wrapping pallets with standard equipment, they’re probably doing twice as much work. This is because of the way that a standard hand pallet wrapping dispenser is designed, it doesn’t have the same ergonomic design as the BOLT hand pallet wrapping dispenser, lightweight and no more bending down during film application, you’ll get more productivity and better use of resource, lowering labor costs.
  • Inconsistent Wrapping: Standard hand pallet wrapping equipment can cause inconsistent wrapping, this is because standard hand pallet wrapping equipment doesn’t have features such as; adjustable tension, the ability to use pre-stretched film, or an ergonomic grip.

  • Safety: Poor equipment used for hand pallet wrapping can pose a safety risk to employees. This is because pallets that are wrapped with basic hand pallet wrapping dispensers, provide less stability and can cause operator fatigue and strain.
