There are various types of strapping available on the market.  The most commonly used is polypropylene strapping which is for light to medium duty applications, regularly used as a pallet strapping.  This is also the cheapest strapping available and very versatile.

Steel strapping and extruded polyester strapping are used for heavy duty applications with a break strain of up to 2 tonnes.  The benefit extruded polyester strapping has over steel strapping is that being a plastic strapping it does not rust or stain your product and has reduced indentation of palletised goods.

Woven polyester strapping can be used for light to heavy duty applications with a break strain of up to 2 tonnes.  It has no sharp edges so can be applied by hand or using a strapping tensioner along with sheradised buckles.

It is critical that the correct strapping tools, seals, buckles are used in the application of each type of strapping for an effective application.

To ensure you get everything you need to get strapping we provide a range of strapping kits for all types of strapping.  This includes the strapping, tools, seals or buckles and dispenser.  These strapping kits also offer a great saving compared to buying each component individually and are delivered in a handy heavy duty double wall box.
