SIAT OneWrap

The SIAT OneWrap is a semi-automatic machine for wrapping pallet loads using stretch film. It provides the right solution for most typical pallet wrapping needs in the warehouse.

Depending on the head type, it is equipped with a mechanical or electromagnetic brake (EM/M/FM) or a motorised stretch film stretching mechanism (SM – 90% / LP – 240%).

Of special note is the new, redesigned control panel with intuitive, easy-to-read icons. It can be used to set 10 different operating programmes to achieve an extremely consistent packing cycle for a given product.

Stretch Film Wrapper – packaging automation in modern logistics

A stretch film wrapper is a device used to secure palletised loads with stretch film. Its purpose is to evenly and controllably wrap goods, which helps maintain load stability during transit and minimises the risk of damage.

Today, it’s a key tool in logistics, manufacturing, and warehousing, enabling the standardisation and acceleration of the packaging process. Traditional hand wrapping, though still used by small businesses, is time-consuming, physically demanding for workers, and leads to greater film consumption. Implementing a wrapper allows for a significant reduction in material costs, improved work ergonomics, and increased process repeatability.

The market offers manual, semi-automatic, and automatic models, varying in function, efficiency, and operation. A well-chosen stretch film wrapper not only boosts work efficiency but also ensures professional, secure preparation of loads for transport, directly enhancing customer service levels.

Stretch wrapper – useful from simple tasks to automated systems

For many businesses, choosing the right stretch wrapper means balancing efficiency, reliability, and investment costs. Several categories of machines are available on the market, ranging from simple manual wrappers to fully automated packaging systems.

Manual models are suitable for smaller warehouses where the number of pallets to secure is limited. Their advantages include low cost and mobility, but they’re limited by efficiency and higher film consumption.

Semi-automatic wrappers offer a compromise between cost and automation. They require operator intervention, but perform most of the work independently.

Meanwhile, an automatic stretch wrapper is the solution for facilities that pack dozens or hundreds of pallets daily. Such machines come equipped with features like:

Pre-stretch (initial film stretching)
Tension force regulation
Programmable wrapping cycles
Integrated safety systems

It’s also worth considering models with a top press option, which is essential for unstable loads. Thanks to a wide selection and the ability to adapt to the type of goods and operational mode, stretch wrappers offer a flexible solution for businesses across various industries.

Stretch wrappers – benefits in logistics, manufacturing, and warehousing

Introducing a stretch wrapper into daily warehouse operations brings tangible benefits, not just in efficiency but also in packaging quality and repeatability.

First, wrappers ensure load stability—this is particularly important in collective transport, where the shifting of a single pallet can cause damage to many products.

Second, automation reduces stretch film consumption. Precise dispensing and stretching of the film significantly decrease its usage compared to hand wrapping. This means not only material savings but also a lower unit cost per pallet.

The third benefit is safety. Eliminating hand wrapping improves work ergonomics. It’s also worth noting that stretch wrappers can operate continuously, which significantly impacts warehouse throughput.

Consistent packaging quality also raises a company’s professionalism in the eyes of end customers—a well-secured load means less risk of complaints and losses.

In the long run, using wrappers contributes to better work organisation, a reduction in human error, and a higher process standard within the logistics department.

Choose your stretch film wrapper – we'll help you!

Selecting the right stretch film wrapper should stem from a thorough analysis of your company’s operational needs.

First, it’s crucial to determine the volume of pallets that need securing. This is the most critical factor when deciding between a manual, semi-automatic, or automatic wrapper.

Next, assess the type of products being packaged. Wrappers should be adapted to the weight, dimensions, and stability of your loads. For non-standard products (e.g., tall, irregularly shaped items), consider models with additional features like a top press or advanced wrapping parameter controls.

Budget also matters, but it shouldn’t be the sole criterion. The price-to-performance ratio of the machine is equally important.

When choosing a stretch film wrapper, pay attention to the presence of a pre-stretch system, the quality of construction (steel frame, drive components), and the availability of service and technical support.

Companies planning for growth or operating in dynamic environments should also consider the scalability of the solution—the possibility of adding equipment or integrating with other elements of the packaging line.

A consultation with a technical advisor, who can consider your specific operational needs, may prove essential for achieving the best implementation results.
