Stretch wrap for South Carolina
The car plants around Greer and Charleston receive parts from all over the world and ship finished vehicles and parts out again, so pallets here are often export loads that must hold through weeks at sea. That is a case for tougher blown film, corner boards and well-tucked tails. Chemical plants want the same toughness for drums. Upstate distribution centres along I-85 wrap ordinary cartons with machine film.
