Pro Pack Tape Company is an air flow vented pallet wrap manufacturer producing perforated stretch film for pallets that need airflow, moisture release, and heat dissipation during storage or transport. Controlled openings let warm air, water vapor, and gases escape from the wrapped load while the film still helps cartons, crates, trays, and flower buckets stay together. It is suitable for hot palletizing products, fresh produce, agri products, flowers, chilled goods, and cold-chain turnover where solid stretch film may trap condensation.
Product Overview
Air Flow Vented Pallet Wrap is used when a wrapped pallet still needs to breathe. Instead of sealing the load with a closed film layer, pre-punched or die-cut holes leave paths for air to move through cartons, crates, produce trays, and flower buckets. This matters when goods are warm, damp, freshly packed, or still releasing natural gases.
Fruit, vegetables, flowers, plants, hot-filled beverages, bakery trays, dairy cartons, and chilled pallets may develop moisture when wrapped too tightly with solid film. Trapped vapor can wet cartons, wrinkle labels, soften case corners, affect barcode scanning, and slow temperature pull-down in cold storage.
Pro Pack Tape Company adjusts hole size, hole spacing, film thickness, overlap, and wrapping tension according to load shape and ventilation needs. Standard 400-500 mm widths fit most hand and machine wrapping work, with 2 inch or 3 inch cores matched to different tools. Thickness is normally selected from 12-35 um: lighter produce trays may use thinner grades, while taller pallets often need stronger film bridges.
Benefits
- Allows warm air and vapor to move out through the wrapped pallet
- Helps reduce moisture around produce, flowers, plants, and agri products
- Supports heat dissipation after filling, baking, washing, grading, or processing
- Reduces condensation on cartons, labels, trays, bottles, sleeves, and crates
- Helps chilled pallets cool more evenly during cold-chain turnover
- Keeps the load unitized when hole pattern, overlap, and stretch force are matched correctly
When Should Air Flow Vented Pallet Wrap Be Used Instead of Solid Stretch Film?
Air Flow Vented Pallet Wrap is better when the product inside the pallet should not be closed off from air movement. Fresh fruit and vegetables may still release field heat and natural gases. Flowers and plants need light air exchange during transfer. Hot-filled bottles, warm cans, bakery trays, and products packed soon after processing may continue releasing steam or retained heat. For these loads, a vented stretch film for hot palletizing products gives heat and moisture a way out while still holding the pallet together.

Applications
- Fruits and vegetables such as leafy greens, tomatoes, berries, citrus, melons, and mushrooms that need vented stretch films for wrapping fruits and vegetables after harvest
- Agri products after harvesting, washing, grading, or packing, where vented stretch wrap with holes for agri products helps keep air moving through the pallet
- Flower buckets, plant trays, and horticulture pallets where vented stretch film for wrapping flowers helps reduce heat buildup
- Hot palletizing products such as hot-filled beverages, warm cans, bakery goods, cooked food trays, and freshly processed goods
- Chilled food, dairy cartons, beverage pallets, frozen goods, and moisture-sensitive cartons needing faster temperature pull-down and less label damage
How Do Hole Pattern, Film Thickness, and Wrapping Tension Affect Pallet Stability?
A vented film should let air pass through, but it still has to hold the pallet during handling. A more open hole pattern improves ventilation, while smaller holes or closer spacing can improve holding force for tall, mixed, or frequently moved pallets. Film thickness also affects the result: 12-17 um may suit lighter produce trays, while 20-35 um is often selected when cartons need stronger side support. Wrapping tension should keep the holes open without over-stretching the film bridges. Bottom wraps, top overlap, and corner movement should be checked after handling.
FAQ
What is Air Flow Vented Pallet Wrap used for?
It is used for pallet loads needing airflow, moisture release, or heat dissipation, especially fresh produce, flowers, agri products, chilled goods, and hot palletizing products.
Does vented pallet wrap still hold the pallet securely?
Yes. With the right film thickness, hole spacing, overlap, and wrapping tension, it can ventilate while keeping cartons, trays, crates, and flower buckets unitized.
How does the perforated film reduce condensation?
The holes allow warm air and water vapor to escape, helping reduce condensation on cartons, labels, trays, and outer packaging surfaces.
What loads are not suitable for this film?
It is not ideal for loads needing full dust blocking, full water protection, complete enclosure, or loose sharp items that may protrude through the holes.
