The Hidden Cost of Damaged Goods: Why Load Stability Matters

When a pallet collapses in the back of a truck, it's not just a mess—it's a financial disaster. Between the cost of the damaged product, the rejected shipment fees, and the strain on customer relationships, a single failure can cost thousands.

The Science of Containment

Load containment is the squeezing force the film applies to the load. It's the only thing keeping your boxes from shifting when the truck hits a pothole. If you don't measure it, you're guessing.

Common Causes of Failure

• Insufficient Film Tension: The film is too loose to hold the load together.
• Poor Pallet Bonding: The load isn't secured to the pallet base, allowing it to slide off.
• Film Relaxation: Cheap films stretch initially but lose their tension over time (stress relaxation).

At Towers Packaging Solutions, we don't just sell film; we sell load security. Our high-performance films maintain their holding force from your dock to your customer's door.
