Stretch wrap is one of those products in which the only thing the customer wants to know about is "What's My Price"?

The truth is stretch wrap is a 

necessary  evil.  Without it you will never be able to get your product to point B without loss or damage.

AEP has been and remains a leader in the plastics industry so we were not surprised when they recently 

announced that they added eight pre-stretch manufacturing lines throughout the country.

Pre-stretch is the largest growing segment in the industry because of its resistance to edge damage and its light weight characteristics which adds to a better employee ergonomics   The light weight also brings the cost to wrap down considerably, compared to conventional films.

Although many of the lines will produce films that are currently in their product mix they did add a few new style films with distinct personalities.

Their XLX films offer a conventional pre-stretch product and great containment but is very cost conscience.

Another new product is the X9, a film geared to those who have been resistant to pre-stretch film or who wrap very demanding skids.

X9 is a heavy gauge film that is very stiff, giving those who are wrapping a sense of confidence that the skid will survive its journey.

Lastly, AEP will now be offering a new Glide Smooth Core which will offer less friction and keep your wrappers' hands cool.

Please let your favorite One Pack Sales Rep know if you have an interest in these new products and would like a sample to try out.
