Hand stretch film comes in light rolls for wrapping pallets and carton groups by hand. As the film stretches, it clings to itself; without tape or adhesive, it brings the load together into a single block.
The right thickness depends on the load’s weight and how sharp its corners are. Thinner film is more economical; thicker film offers better resistance to punctures and tears. Tell us about your load and we will recommend a suitable thickness.

Which products is hand stretch film used to wrap?
Textile cartons and pallet wrapping
For businesses looking for pallet stretch film or carton wrapping film, hand film helps keep carton groups together without a wrapping machine. For cartons of towels, bathrobes and ready-to-wear clothing, pallet dimensions, load height and weight affect the choice of thickness. Securing the load to the base and wrapping it evenly are just as important as the film.
Wrapping furniture, doors and profiles
Furniture stretch film can be used to hold doors, profiles and furniture parts together during transport. Protect delicate surfaces and sharp corners with suitable cushioning. For covering large surfaces, PE cover film and sheeting rolls are another option.
Bundling small packages and items
Narrow-width stretch film can be convenient for wrapping pipes, profiles or small carton groups. Choose the film width and roll weight to suit the person using it. Compare hand wrapping and machine options in our guide to choosing stretch film for pallets. Stretch film does not replace the required securing of loads inside a vehicle.
Calculate the net film when comparing rolls
If the total weighed roll is 3,0 kg and the empty core is 0,3 kg, the net film weight is 2,7 kg. These figures are examples to explain the calculation; they are not the actual roll weight of a Mertan product. Also record how many pallets are wrapped per load, and the amount of film lost through breaks or rewinding.

Questions
Frequently asked questions about Hand Stretch Film
What is hand stretch film and what is it used for?
Hand stretch film is a flexible LLDPE film made for wrapping pallets and carton groups by hand. As the film stretches, it clings to itself; without tape or adhesive, it brings the load together into a single block. It helps prevent products from tipping over or shifting and protects them from dust and moisture during transport and storage. It is a practical solution for warehouses without wrapping machines, small businesses and irregularly shaped loads.
What thickness should hand stretch film be?
We make stretch film in custom thicknesses from 9–35 microns; the right choice depends on the load’s weight and how sharp its corners are. As a general guide, 17 microns is used for light cartons and small packages, 20 microns for standard pallet wrapping, and 23 microns and above for heavy loads with sharp corners. Thinner film is more economical; thicker film offers better resistance to punctures and tears. Tell us about your load and we will help choose the right thickness.
What is the difference between hand stretch film and machine stretch film?
Hand stretch film comes in light rolls for manual use and is stretched by hand during wrapping. Machine stretch film comes in heavier rolls for pallet wrapping machines; the machine’s pre-stretch system stretches it much further, so the same load can be wrapped with less film. Hand stretch film is suitable if you wrap a few pallets a day, while machine stretch film is better for regular, high-volume wrapping.
Do you make mini stretch film (narrow-width stretch film)?
Yes. We make hand stretch film in any width from 10 cm to 50 cm. Narrow widths such as 10–20 cm are ideal for wrapping pipes, profiles, cables and small carton groups, and are easy to use by hand. Widths of 45–50 cm are the most commonly used for pallet wrapping. Tell us what you wrap and we will help choose the right width.
Is hand stretch film available in clear, white or coloured options?
Yes; we make it in clear, white and coloured options. Clear film lets labels and barcodes be read through the wrap. Black and other coloured films provide privacy for shipments whose contents need to be concealed, and help you distinguish products, customers or shipments in the warehouse.
What affects the price of hand stretch film?
The main factors are thickness, width, roll weight, colour and order quantity. As thickness and width increase, each roll holds more film and therefore costs more. The biggest saving is avoiding a film that is thicker than your load requires. Tell us how you use it and your estimated monthly roll requirement, and we will prepare a quote with the most economical option.
How should stretch film be stored?
Store the rolls in their packaging in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight. High temperatures and prolonged exposure to sunlight can weaken the film’s cling and stretch. Protect the roll edges from impacts too; dented or nicked edges can cause the film to tear during wrapping.
What information should I send for a hand stretch film quote?
Just tell us the type and approximate weight of the load you wrap, the film width you want, your colour preference and your estimated monthly roll requirement. If you are unsure which thickness is suitable, describe your load and we will help choose it.
How many days does delivery take for hand stretch film?
We make every order to your specification and deliver to all 81 provinces of Turkey; the total time from order confirmation to delivery is 2–7 days. The delivery method and transit time for your province are listed in the table on our delivery page; for international deliveries, we set the method and time in the quote.
Is there a minimum order quantity for hand stretch film?
No, there is no minimum order quantity. As we make every order to suit your needs, you can place a small trial order or make regular wholesale purchases.
