Packaging Friends offers premium plastic film and sheeting solutions to protect your products from storage to delivery. Our LDPE polyethylene products, available in continuous rolls, are designed to shield your goods from dirt, moisture, and temperature fluctuations.
Pallet covers are protective packaging designed to cover and protect palletized goods during storage, shipping, or handling. They are made from premium-quality barrier films and protective materials that shield the goods from environmental hazards, including moisture, dust, dirt, UV rays, and temperature fluctuations.
Pallet covers differ from regular types of plastic sheeting because they are made with protective properties that maintain product integrity over extended periods when goods are stored.
Modern-day pallet covers use multi-layer film technology that incorporates various forms of polymers for the best protection. Thanks to these, anything on the pallets, such as delicate goods, food items, electronics, pharmaceuticals, or industrial components, is protected throughout the supply chain, from their point of origin to their final destination.
How do Pallet Covers Work?
Pallet covers are designed to function as a heavy-duty, integrated barrier that creates a controlled microclimate around palletized goods. They create an airtight seal around the stored goods, keeping out moisture, one of the most common causes of product degradation that occurs during storage and shipment. The barrier of the film material prevents any water vapor from passing through and maintains stable humidity levels under the cover.
The protective system shields against airborne impurities, dust, and chemical vapors that could compromise the products on the pallets. High-quality pallet covers have UV-blocking ingredients that protect light-sensitive goods against photodegradation. They also insulate against heat, keeping temperatures stable throughout the day.
The covers wrap and fit the shape of the pallet they cover, creating a tight seal that eliminates any air pockets where condensation could occur. The majority of covers have heat-sealable edges or adhesive strips for complete closure. Some have elastic edges or drawstring closures for a tight fit on the pallet base. This all-around sealing stays put and remains intact throughout handling and transportation.
What Sizes Do They Come in?
We offer an extensive range of pallet covers in various sizes to accommodate different pallet sizes and load configurations. You have a choice of the following materials: LDPE, LDPE UVI/UVA, and Mono PE, with thicknesses ranging from 1 Mil to 6 Mil.
Our collection features two types of product presentations. One is 1/roll - a lengthy, continuous roll, typically 100 feet or more, which ships as a single roll without pre-cut units. Its width ranges from 12 inches to 20 feet, and its length from 100 feet to 200 feet.
The second presentation comes in pre-cut sizes and in quantities ranging from 25/roll to 1000/roll. Widths range from 24 inches to 108 inches, and lengths from 24 inches to 108 inches.
We offer a choice of four types of rolls: pallet shrink bags on rolls, Clear poly sheeting tarp rolls, Pallet top sheets, and Black pallet covers with UVI & UVA protection.
Advantages of Pallet Covers
Protection against elements
Pallet covers protect the products on the pallets from the elements, including moisture, contamination, and UV exposure during storage and transit. This protection translates into cost savings through lower product loss and warranty claims.
Warehouse efficiency
Pallet covers can make warehouse operations more efficient, as covered pallets are cleaner and easier to handle, move, or check. The protective cover also extends storage periods, preventing product degradation. This can improve the flexibility of the inventory and reduce waste.
Better logistics
From a logistical point of view, pallet covers offer improved load security and stability. They protect against products shifting during transportation and minimize the risk of theft as they conceal the contents.
Even in terms of appearance, clean-looking covered pallets improve brand reputation, add integrity throughout the supply chain, and give warehouses and logistics centers a clean and tidy look.
Applications of Pallet Covers
Pallet covers are widely used across various industries where product security is a primary concern. In the food and beverage industry, covers protect perishable goods from moisture and contamination during cold storage and refrigerated transport. They keep food safe and extend its shelf-life. For example:
- Industrial applications include protecting equipment, automotive parts, chemicals, and construction materials against weathering when stored outside and shipped over long distances.
- Retail and consumer goods companies use pallet covers to prevent damage during work in distribution facilities.
- Technology and electronics companies use pallet covers to safeguard delicate components from static electricity, dust, and moisture that can damage their products.
