Stretch hooding

< >

What is stretch hooding?

Stretch hooding technology allows you to wrap your palletised loads using a hood smaller than the pallet. This hood is first pleated and then stretched over the load from the top downwards. The elastic properties of the film thus ensure optimal support for your products.

The use of an automated stretch hooding machine offers many advantages for your palletised loads:

  • Your products are completely sealed and UV protected when an opaque film is used.
  • Our machines are designed to guarantee the stability and integrity of your loads during transport.
  • The pallet hood can only be reconstituted by an automated stretch hooding machine, thereby protecting you against theft and damage.

If you choose a Thimon pallet stretch hooding machine, you will be opting for an ergonomic, aesthetic and customisable machine.

Our hooding machines give you the possibility of automatically selecting the right hood for the load you want to pack. Our machines can handle up to nine rolls of film.

The packaging film is opened mechanically, not by depression, guaranteeing you absolute reliability as well as lower energy consumption.
