Industrial Stretch Hood Films

Pallets stacked with bottled products secured using transparent stretch hood film

Overview

Layfield’s Stretch Tech™ Stretch Hood is a next-generation, polyethylene-based film designed to secure pallet loads without the need for heat shrink. This innovative technology delivers exceptional elasticity—allowing the film to be mechanically stretched, pulled down over your pallet load, and released for a tight, secure fit.

  • Customizable Performance: Options include anti-static and anti-fog additives to meet your specific application needs.
  • Built for Tough Environments: Fully UV-protected to maintain integrity in harsh outdoor conditions.
  • Efficiency & Savings: Reduces consumable usage, speeds up wrapping time, and delivers a clean, professional finish that enhances product value.

With Stretch Tech™, you get a smarter, faster, and more sustainable pallet packaging solution—engineered to protect and perform.
