Strapping

Polypropylene strapping is lightweight, cost-effective, and ideal for bundling lighter loads. Polyester strapping offers higher tensile strength and is suited to heavier pallets and long-term tension retention. Steel strapping is the strongest option, used for securing very heavy or sharp-edged loads such as bricks, timber, or metal. Choosing the right strapping depends on your load weight, handling process, and application environment.

Buckles and seals are used to secure the ends of strapping in place once tightened. They’re essential for manual strapping systems, helping to lock the strap firmly and prevent slippage. Buckles are often used with polypropylene strapping and tensioners, while metal seals are typically used with steel or heavy-duty polyester strapping and sealers.

Yes. We offer a full range of strapping tools, including tensioners, sealers, combination tools, and friction weld strapping tools. These help apply tension, seal the strapping, and cut it to size. Using the right tools ensures your loads are secured quickly, safely, and consistently, improving efficiency and reducing strain on your team.

Yes, but care should be taken in material choice and application method. For fragile goods, polypropylene or polyester strapping is recommended over steel to avoid damaging the product. Edge protectors or corner boards can also be used to distribute pressure and prevent cutting into the packaging. Our team can help advise the safest strapping setup for your items.

Absolutely. Strapping is a widely used solution for pallet stabilisation, helping prevent load shift during storage or transit. It can be used alongside stretch wrap, corner boards, or anti-slip sheets for additional security. Polyester and steel strapping are particularly effective for heavy-duty or high-value pallet loads that require extra containment force.
